Andy - how do you do that in Strava?

Choose a rider who did the route. In the overview tab, sect a segment you want to compare yourself with, then there is a tab saying compare. You can change the reference line either you or the person you're comparing. Also flybys is useful feature you can see a group of riders and relative positions along a complete ride.

Here’s a perfect example where I fell off Tommy and Paul’s group and after being rescued by Andy pulled away on a hill to join a fast group. They carried me until I fell off that one too Martin and Andy were probably alone or in a smaller group so disadvantaged.

And then this where pretty much alone or with small groups of 2-4 riders all equally spent

You obviously put the factor 50 on them - unlike me! My legs are glowing like a deeper red version of the jerseys!

By the time we got on the train my legs had a nice rosey glow to them. But the factor 50 Bob gave me definitely helped. My neck and shoulders escaped unscathed! My arms on the other hand....

Man it was hot yesterday

Here is the flyby from Strava comparing our positions relative to each other as we progressed along the route.

It says on the website results (not on the app) if you've qualified for the UCI Gran Fondo world championships now - says "provisional Q" after your name if you have

I haven't - only top 48 of the 359 in my category qualified - not totally sure why as it's meant to be top 25%, but I think they may have combined results from the race AND Sportive (although that still doesn't really make sense with the %).

I'm confused as well. There is a list of qualifiers on the website and in my category, I am faster than the lowest qualifier but I don't appear on the qualification list and don't have a Provisional Q.

I've emailed them.

Where's the list of qualifiers on the website? I can see the results but is there also a separate list?

Looking VERY smart Jim!

Loved following your recent tour on Strava by the way - scenery and routes you took looked amazing!

The jerseys were all posted Friday by the way so hopefully everyone else should be getting them today or tomorrow (sorry I didn't get a chance to do it sooner)
