Silly STRAVA Racing

[Andrew_Culture]

I was out running, just coming up to the T junction at the Greyhound before heading into Blakenham. LOL at the Clayon Co-op, I know exactly what you mean

I actually looked left as I passed the pub! There was a couple of cars that looked like they were going to pull out in front of me, and I was thinking that I hadn't noticed that the pub was Greene King before!

I pitched in at 11th on the Bahram church segment, which I'm happy with, and I'm unlikely to beat that in a lunch break as it's just a little bit too far away from work for me, here's my ride.

Actually I've just looked on Google and I'm thinking of the pub near the newsagents, gawd what a dull correction!

Nice one, I am in 7th at the moment and there is only 7 seconds in it between us. I will have another crack tomorrow when I am in next on my bike. I only really have 1/2 mile to warm up before I get there from work and have only really gone for it once, will see what tomorrow brings.

Andrew, it was on the Tide Mill Way Climb

Point of order, you mention the word "climb" yet the segment is downhill. So all it is basically is downhill, close your eyes and hope for the best ?

Cheers, I'm planning on a whazz around Woodbridge way this Sunday so I'll make you 3/81 instead of 3/80. I've wondered where that segment was, I can't believe it's the main road, I've cycled that many many times (having grown up in Wickham Market!).

If you fancy an early one Matt and I are meeting at the Red Lion, Martlesham at 06:30 on Sunday

http://app.strava.com/segments/1687321 pity I didn't break the 23mph over the 2 miles. Must try harder.

After my whinge this morning I am happy with that, I can go and holiday and relax now.

Sounds great! I'm allowed out until about noon, is that enough time?

 

[4F]

Easily, I am looking to be back home by 10:30 ish Probably be in the region of 50 /60 miles or so.

 

[Andrew_Culture]

Lovely job, I'll hopefully see you there. I'll PM you if I can't make it.

Took a KOM back from a guy who took it off me this morning, who I took it off the other day as he took it off me over the weekend.

How long can this go on for :/

I need the Strava excuse book as just missed a KOM on a trail with 39 riders by 1 second Last time i tried it i was 8 seconds off (at 3min20) and had decided i could never get it. I think this Strava chasing must be making me quicker That said im sure if I take it, the current #1 will take it back within days, its good fun with segments changing hands a lot round this way.

I've started to like the average heart rate over a segment

I like stuff like this. Your heart rate shouts "not even trying"

I've got a couple where I am tied for 1st and they don't show in my KoM profile page.

I had that issue. I emailed the support and they fixed it.
