Rotorburn strava

The Old Willunga Hill DH, runs beside the road, but is easily distinguished from Old Willunga Hill Rd. In some spots it is 20m from the road. Yet the leader board is full of roadies zooming down, after trying to match Ritchie Porte on the way up.

As an aside, Ritchie has been knocked back to second on one of the short segments up the climb, by an ebiker lapping the DH.

When I raised this with the e, his words were "fuck off idiot, who cares"

Before blowing his trumpet with great gusto on his Facebook mtb page............. YIEEEW
go on, flag that ride, you know it makes sense ;)
 
Flag them twice, the first time they can block it.
Looks like it's already been done. Top 10 is all protour riders, and young Fat e McBaggins is back down, 7 minutes off the pace.

For reference, Ritchie is at 2.05. Fat e was at 1.31, now over 9 minutes.
 
I did just discover today that if you're running Android, "Kiwi browser" can run chrome extensions on a mobile device so you can get all of the extra elevate (or sauce) data on your phone
 
This one's a bit of a worry. Might have to start rides further away from home. Maybe not an issue if every ride starts in a carpark next to your trails, but I like to do a bit of riding starting from home on the gravel frankenbike or the roadie, and some others here would as well.

So even if you start your future rides a km from home unless you go back and alter all your past data you are fucked basically. I'd be boarding the windows and getting the guns out of the safe.....I can see those fuckers targeting all the bearded, coffee drinking, gravel riding, satchel carrying peeps...goddam wide ass curly bar mofo's aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhrrrrrrggggggggggg.

Or..is it really a worry?

Fuck strava....there's a thought.

I wonder how many bike thieves would actually use Strava data to steal bikes. Most are pretty opportunistic and not that smart.
 
Strava losing appeal ? Cashflow not as expected ? Is this a suicide move ?

Looks like a good idea for 4 friends to get together as it just needs to be family or friends... but not current subscribers :oops:

Sounds to me like a kick in the teeth for full subscribers and a rush to cancel $99.99 subs for an easily paid 57% cheaper $42.50.

One rotorburner pays $169.99, 3 others send him $42.50 and 4 get a whole year of Premium.

I've been a member for 11yrs, 6 as premium and 5 free now. Originally cancelled as I was not using the features and my son wanted premium, so I swapped my sub for his as the price took a massive jump. If they had left it at $59 I would probably still be a sub member. Now only $42.50... strange.

Most people I know are dropping it altogether or making rides private.
Me. I thrive on internet points. When I don’t get at least 10 kudos’s I quickly scroll through my friends rides and ‘kudos’ them all except for ‘virtual’ can’t bring myself to kudos them and therefore obliging them to like my rides, dog walks or even hanging out the washing. Ah sweet sweet internet validation.
go on fuckers. ‘Like’ this post!! I’m feeling a bit down today. :p

I've used Strava for 10 years now and had the free version the whole time. I wouldn't mind some of the subscription functions but not enough to pay $100 per year. I like seeing what rides people I follow do, seeing if I can improve on a personal segment attempt and it's handy for finding routes that others have done in the past for new places to ride.
