Silly STRAVA Racing

[HLaB]

Struggling to upload my ride too HLaB, mine did have some segments where I think I improved my times, will be a bit gutted if I can't sort it.
This message is on the site though-

Thanks for letting us know, I hope you/they sort it soon.

My mates ride was showing 13.6mph on Strava but when you go into his detail he was averaging 15mph on the club open day and my garmin TC also shows 15mph. I know we were going slow with kids/ newbies but I didn't think he was going that slow

All the info has come up now, panic over

I took a nice steady ride today, no Strava racing, kept HR low. I even failed to bite when a guy came out in front of me and took off checking back to see if he'd dropped me! So relaxing for a change.

Was uploading when Strava went kablooey. Tells me my upload is a duplicate now even though original is nowhere to be seen.
Not a happy bunny!

EDIT - It's just appeared after 3 hours

Same as me, will load up, give it time

Yep, it's there now. Can't get out much these days so every little counts!

2 KOMS and a third place today. Happy with that!
Although I tried to get a KOM back that someone stole, but got caught up in some bad traffic, so missed out.

I love Strava, but many of the times near me are monumentally fast. I cannot over emphasise how unbelievable 10.4mph up this hill is! Not helped by the fact the KOM is a team GB cyclist

I suppose it's good to aim high...!

Lol one of my mates who's quite good on hills set his second fastest time on this segment today his best pace was only 5mph the KOM is over 15mph and I'm 14.7mph. This is the actual segment however, which goes straight north through the park. Strava is picking up his rides which go east to the main gates, north on Chalmers St and east passed the top gates; even though the segment end is circa 20m away it still picks him up!

Well the cheek of it, 2 KOM's lost in one day to different guys.

Balance redressed this morning on way home from work!

 

[HLaB]

I was amazed it lasted so long my KOM up Puriden, it was a pre strava ride just after I handed my dissertation in, my time was blown away today, I'm amazed no one tried to beat it earlier though. A lot of my other KOM's have been set one day and targeted the next.

Do you guys mainly use Strava for the uphill segments? Since im heavy and on a hybrid, ive been chasing a few relatively flat segments with a tailwind recently just for a bit of fun

I found a segment going down this hill http://goo.gl/maps/PzYc where the top guys on the leaderboard are bombing down there at over 40mph. Dont think ill be trying to beat them at that!
