IH8MUD Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 If spiteful pro riders, who visit get hold of this we can kiss KOMs goodbye . .
Ryno. Posted May 27, 2015 Author Posted May 27, 2015 So show them then dude... Doh.How should I do that? follow the link in my Signiture to my Strava profile and have a look
Ryno. Posted May 27, 2015 Author Posted May 27, 2015 If spiteful pro riders, who visit get hold of this we can kiss KOMs goodbye . . lost one at the beginning of this year to a guy called Jacques Janse van Rensburg... Here's the link https://www.strava.com/segments/3986428
Patchelicious Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 Got a few KOMs in the area I live but those haven't had more than a 100 or so guys riding them. Think the segment I'm most chuffed with is in the Cradle. From the caves back down to the turn off. It's a popular Time Time trial segment. Think I was around 12th out of 4700 so riders last time I checked, 51km/h average for about 7mins I think.... The only way we can get Pros to leave our KOMs alone is to call Mr H!! If you don't know him, Google him!

Fisan Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 Now my issue with Strava and KOM's... when you start comparing the KOM efforts to the average effort, things start to get funny.
blondeonabike Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 Now my issue with Strava and KOM's... when you start comparing the KOM efforts to the average effort, things start to get funny.And that is why a 20km segment with at least three eina climbs is a decent yardstick if you boys really want to start measuring......
Guest notmyname Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 What did Rouxtjie say about post counts?Maybe it's the Sheriff giving us a rev before Friday..
NicNacDH Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 Yeah, well. I have 1 KOM and i do not even know how i got it. I would call it a "combination cheat" by Samsung GPS, Satellite connection failure and Strava miss interpretation. I do not believe much in KOM's and comparing it to others.I only care about my Personal Record's and keeping up with my mates, this keeps me motivated.
