Whoop! Whoop! Whoop! The joys of surfing the green wave along Victoria Street...

Shame the latter part of the ride wasn't so blessed by such perfect timing and traffic conditions.

Took it fairly easy on the preceding few miles because I knew I was going to go for it. Perhaps the merest suggestion of a tailbreeze too

Have we seen this?

Funny thing is I've seen rides that looked like this and wondered what was going on. Never twigged it was bloody cheating! Tbh, I don't think I'd flag such a ride though - because a) they're only cheating themselves (I don't care enough about KOMs to feel hard done by), and b) I'd be concerned that the data might look like that for other reasons and I'd be flagging a legitimate ride.

And who says the dopers are always ahead of the testers!!
Though some iphone and Polar devices can leave a similar pattern on the odd occasion. This might lead to people flagging every speed graph that isn't smooth as silk.

Yes, this is exactly why I'd be wary of flagging rides.
Easy ride to work this morn. Except I had a bit of a dig on a shortish flat segment. And look who I wound up next to on the leaderboard. Fame at last

Is his watts so much lower due to tailwind or fitness?Easy ride to work this morn. Except I had a bit of a dig on a shortish flat segment. And look who I wound up next to on the leaderboard. Fame at last
