For me, i mtb with guys so im usually last on the climbs and dead at the end of a ride. I suffer while the guys cruise. :-) So it ist nice to see how i compare with the girls when i upload my ride to strava, it makes me feel a little bit better.

Strava has finally hit sabie… imagine my shock to find out there some fast times around these mountains. claimed my first KOM only to have it stolen by owen hannie… (perhaps time i take up another sport) but that aside i did a ride of roughly 290km, and when i uploaded it to strava it said 559km? is there some way to crop out the sections that i did not do so the ride is the actual distance i did? Thanks.. maybe a stupid question dont even know if that is possible? but this kind of technology is new in sabie so be gentle with me.. 

 

Hey Max!

 

Once you reach the top there is unfortunately only one way from there! But seriously, if you want to crop a ride just go to the page with the ride in strava on your pc and click on the little spanner tool on the left and choose "crop" It will then bring up a map with sliders that you can use to cut out the parts that you don't want - just be careful though as once you press save there is no going back (unless of course you delete the ride and upload it again).

Same here.. but besides the uploading to strava bit.. added.. I seriously doubt there are KOM up for grabs here.. unless some folk are sprinting up the slimesdams. [emoji12]

I know the feeling!

hey carpet and gen.....i think the guys like having us come with because no guy on a group ride wants to be last. And when they are tired they can be all chivalrous and keep the girl company at the back while they take a break.

I suggest you see the breast thread to get extra nourishment to reclaim your KOM[emoji12]

Nope, we ride behind you because we always appreciate a scenic ride........

I weight just as much if not more than most guys that cycle. If there were a buffalo category for the girls I would have been in there.
