Strava- I have been exploring the new-ish Flyby feature. Its very good at picking riders who crossed or took your route. Also it has a feature where you can track the time difference of your ride as you move along. I and a couple of others were dropped on a climb and really didn't see the main group again. I always used to think they rode off into the distance and I was left miles behind. With a little bit of analysis, you can see the gap plotted along the route. I was a minute down when I got to the top of the climb, but only, (ONLY) 30 secs down after a further 14 miles, I closed the gap to 20 secs at one point. So the group were just in front around the next bend.

Dont give up, the pack is just around the next corner

I'm hoping I can do it in 2hrs 20 mins ... any more and I may have to bail as I'll be late getting the wife. Start off steady and see how it goes

I must be getting hungrier and fitter

Or there's an error

3 in the top 10. View attachment 346679

That's great - but we may have 4 when (if??) it updates and @Daddy Pig 's recent stage rides are included. I will however drop down the leaderboard a bit after the final update as I'm definitely behind Jacob and Pep at the very least, maybe more but I can't be bothered to do a spreadsheet like DP to work it all out - hoping Bkool might do that for us! (Eventually....)

I had a gander and the rides have updated but the leaderboard hasn't. It should look something like....
1. Pep,
2. @AAAC 76C
3. Thomas r,
4. Jacob,
5. @bridgy ,
6. DP and
11. @BILL S

Thanks for that DP - I'll be quite happy finishing behind that four - and ahead of you! I guess I must have edged ahead of you overall on 1 or 2 stages with big long climbs, as I know you were ahead of me on several stages

I think for most stages we have been closely matched except you killed me on stage 6 'down under' by around 7 minutes.

Bkool have updated me to say they are working on the overall standings so watch this space...

Top 2000 would be nice

only last week I tried to explain to my youngest the theory about monkeys being able to type Shakespeare's works given enough time etc. You know. My son told me I was talking nonsense. I think TT's post and picture may make it easier for me to persuade him using bkool as an example
