Just curious. Do they have separate segment leaderboards for e-bike users now?I do have it set on ebike settings.

Interesting. Just asked as there's a lady around here who I know for a fact sold her road bike and got a fancy e-bike. Sometimes she logs it as an e-bike ride, but other times she doesn't and goes way up the leaderboards.

I always have it set on ebike. It's not fair on other riders to do that.
Besides you are cheating yourself as well. I would feel really bad if I did that.

Indeed, the lovely Monkers.Who's Harry? Surely not Monkers?
I don't bother with Strava any more. Too much petrol and electric doping going on. Why pay good money to be bested by a cheat?

Well, I am going to do a segment in my car soon because I want to know the gradient of a road nearby that I can't do on my bike. Of course, I will delete it as soon as I get the information.
When I say I can't do it on my bike, I mean, at the moment. When I change my cassette to a higher cog ( 40 teeth I hope), it may be a different matter.

I occasionally flag them if it's too obvious. The lady in question went from averaging around 10 mph to 15 mph and went up a hill segment at close to 15mph taking the QOM. It wasn't me so it wasn't sour grapes by the way! Lol. Most of the QOM's around here are held by a good club rider from over near Kinross. Was just the principal annoyed me when the rest of us are using good old fashioned leg power and working hard.

I don't enjoy really steep hills much these days. I like a long gradual climb.

This reminded me earlier and I promptly forgot - memory seems to be a growing issue. Earlier today I opened a new tab to Google something, then I couldn't recall what I wanted to Google.
Anyway, side tracked. Many, many years ago we visited a friend in Aberystwyth. We went to walk at a spot famous for its views - near, I think, Devil's Bridge. WD??
Parked the car and started to wander "Quick, quick the kites are displaying" said the complete stranger who rushed up to us. So we hurried in the general direction. Arrived at said spot to feel rather disappointed...........
Apparently there is more than one sort of kite in the world and not all on the end of a bit of string.
