CaptainDura Posted March 12, 2008 Share Hey the file is missing. I see only the 2007 zip file and some other races. What gives? Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/14109-argus-results-are-up/page/2/#findComment-268014 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinnekop Posted March 12, 2008 Share Nice work Controlc The mind still boggles why WT cannot sort it according to Club. http://s3.amazonaws.com/advrider/becca.gif Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/14109-argus-results-are-up/page/2/#findComment-268016 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceboy Posted March 12, 2008 Share Awesome effort controlc. It seems that there are results/names missing from time 4:59 up to 5:03. Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/14109-argus-results-are-up/page/2/#findComment-268050 Share on other sites More sharing options...
controlc Posted March 12, 2008 Share Hey the file is missing. I see only the 2007 zip file and some other races. What gives? Click on the link I provided earlier. The file is there' date=' it's just not listed [yet']. I'm sitting at a client and I can't access my ftp site to add the 2008 argus to the list. As for the missing times: I'll re-download them when I get back in office or back home. What happens is that while I'm downloading page nr xxx, WT updates their times and results start moving between pages. When WT has finished updating everything, I'll re-download everything again. OT:It's gonna be a loooong day. My client's exchange server popped a motherboard. If I'm lucky I'll get some sleep tonight!

controlc Posted March 12, 2008 Share The mind still boggles why WT cannot sort it according to Club. http://s3.amazonaws.com/advrider/becca.gif Hmmm. Perhaps I should have a look at that.... Is it possible to view club membership online? If not, perhaps we should create our own database, then I can extract data per club while downloading it. Just a thought...

controlc Posted March 17, 2008 Share Updated the xls file. It's now 300kB larger [zipped]. Guess I missed a lot of results! The "4:59 up to 5:03" times are fixed as well.

scotty Posted March 17, 2008 Share Was watching the race yesterday and Phil got a sms from Tony Harding telling him his dad Ron Harding had done the Argus in 3.38 aged 69 !! I worked with Ron about 15 ago and he as probably as unfit as you could get then. Well done on that Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/14109-argus-results-are-up/page/2/#findComment-271502 Share on other sites More sharing options...

word Posted March 17, 2008 Share Stupid winning time... they've got me a minute slower than I had on my garmin... oh well... 347/28669. slightly better than last years 5313/28641 Same happened to a buddy of mine with a Garmin The Garmin loses sattelite connection for a bit of time around chapmans peak and thus does not time for that period so your riding time is less by a minute or so. Thats why you need to get a polar. Tell your mate that is what the magnet is for. Ensures that the Garmin continues to record when satelite signal is lost.

CaptainDura Posted March 17, 2008 Share [Tell your mate that is what the magnet is for. Ensures that the Garmin continues to record when satelite signal is lost. That garmin speed and cadence meter is worthless. The battery on that thing lasts like maybe two weeks then it stops working and you need to replace the battery.

That garmin speed and cadence meter is worthless. The battery on that thing lasts like maybe two weeks then it stops working and you need to replace the battery. A far as I can tell, my Garmin Edge 305 did not loose signal anywhere along the route (had a detailed look at the tracklog in MapSource).My Garmin time and Winning time for the Argus only differ by a few seconds. I did use the cadence and speed sensor, which by the way has been running on the original battery for 6 months (used regularly). Same for Mrs mountain_lion's 305. Sounds like you have got a problematic unit. Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/14109-argus-results-are-up/page/2/#findComment-272555 Share on other sites More sharing options...
word Posted March 18, 2008 Share I agree with ML. My Garmin 305 gave my time as 3:01:45 and the WT time was 3:02:03. The reason for the difference is becuase I stopped when my chain came off on Suikerbossie (could not click it back in and completely lost momentum) and there is also the delay between when the group starts and you actually start moving in beginning of the race. Regarding your battery, get it checked out. I ahve had my unit for 1 year and only replaced the battery once.
