You have to give him credit for effort - how many hours does he spend creating segments? And you can see he even takes time to give each one a proper name.

This number includes my riding activities only.

Running CRs or other activities are not considered here.

 

The average length of my KOM segments is 1.72 kilometers.

 

With an average grade of 2.93%

Getting more into details, I got:

4 KOMs in category 4 climbs

 

I am the KOM in 11 short climbs

Short climbs are segments with an average grade of 3% or more, but they're not long enough to get a climb category on Strava

 

Short climbs represent the 36.67% of my KOM segments

 

In particular, I mastered 1walls

Walls are short climbs with an average grade of 8% or more. Steep cobbled road at the Tour Of Flanders are good examples.

 

I got the KOM in a total of 15 flat segments

Flat segments are the50% of my KOM list

 

In particular, I mastered a total of 7

sprints Sprints are flat segments with a total length of 1000 meters or less, where explosive power is often crucial for achieving the first place.

 

And consider that I have the lead in 3

Looks like this guy has created a segment for just about every piece of road that he rideson. On a number of segments he is the only one listed.

I also have one segment where I am the only person that has ridden it as far as I know.

Private game reserve on the Botswana border.

At least one I should not have to worry about the O Oh notification. Has been there since 2015.

I have a few that has been there since 2012 though , on roads I will not ride again .  Not saying where they are.
