E-bike Strava chasers

If you want more accurate results set your Garmin to record every 1 sec. By default it is set to every 6 sec, and here is the problem.

 

If someone before you set a KOM time and his garmin was in 1sec, Strava will "snap" you closest co-ordinates to the start (outside the segment and take that time as start) that means that you still have to travel 5 sec to the start of the segment or even 6 sec to get to the same point. and the same with the end of the segment.

 

I have found that certain segments I use often is accurate if my Garmin is set to recored 1sec then compare that to your previous attempts and you will see it works :-0

So if I set mine to 10s I could finally beat a road KOM?

Shave? No way - it's going to be 1 degree in Elgin tomorrow and I can't afford to be distracted by a cold chin.

 

I'm going to suggest to D batch that we have a group hug at the start - ok - maybe I'll see what D batch looks like before committing to that.

 

If you shaved that face fungus you would be far more aerodynamic, bud. And your new bibs should get you to the top of the boards!

If not in D batch, there's always a spot in G.

I am sure this was the same Riaan that was taking QOM's a few years ago. Age has not done him well.

 

I get that some ignorant people could "accidently" obtain KOM's with their cars & motorbikes because they just don't understand what Strava is about and that other Strava users actually takes their virtual badges seriously.

 

But this guy deliberately classifying himself as a woman and hunting down QOM's - that is just a d^&K move plain and simple -really don't get why you would do something like that other than to piss people off.

I stumbled across this girl by accident. She did not take anything from me.

Funny thing is, looking at the posts, it's not the Strava guys who are Stravassholes, but it rather seems that that its the Anti Strava guy's who are.

I resent that! screw strava and its stupid app that I cant use!!

Hey now! did you just assume his gender? Im going to go sit in my safe place and try not to think about that hurtful thought.

Yip. I think a fellow club mate of mine once after the inaugural Maluti forgot to stop his ride. So his distance covered in 48 hours was remarkable to say the  least! 

So we rode together for a bit! I joined you guys for a little but before the pitstop.

Yes, maybe he doesn't subscribe to the idea of binary genders, thus this is his way of protesting against a Male/Female classified world...

What about the ladies that keep taking the KOM's, they not competitive? 

technically QOM? Perhaps 1% chance worldwide that QOMs are faster than KOMs. Would be interesting to know where this might be the case!

Yeah I mean he could be a #millenial and that could possibly be a hurtful thing to someone so he picked his gender.
