The upside is that somebody else created a segment which I am now the KOM holder on, but I had no idea as I wasn't even aware it was a segment and I've never ridden it aggressively, only my normal commuting speed. Its impressive on paper too given its a 1st of 2040 !!! But before you say "liar", its a long slight downhill and I ride a velomobile so even rolling down there is fast. So in reality, its a little lame but a bonus none the less

Some people wrap them with [ url ] and [ /url ] tags so it is both an image and a clickable URL. Its described on the veloviewer signature page, take a closer look at itwarthog1 wrote:I noticed the other day that some veloviewer sigs you can click on and others you can't. Why is that

I did read it but it was mainly jargon to me. The url bit, as you pointed it out in laymans terms, helped the penny drop .

I thought it captured what was happening with cycling stravaphiles quite well.

How do I delete some rides that I don't want in my history because they weren't rides. I just wanted to record for distance and average speed over a long distance.

I guessing that's because strava ignores the pauses? Any ideas?

Yup. It has its own method of calculating pauses and ignores pauses in segment times anyway.grantw wrote:I guessing that's because strava ignores the pauses? Any ideas?

Now I've just got to work out why it's autopausing unexpectedly.

In terms of how Strava handles the data from the Edge it's definitely different to Garmin Connect. I find that Garmin Connect always matches what the Edge records for things like distance, average and max speed, metres climbed etc whereas Strava is slightly different. I assume strava takes the gpx data for each (or every so many) point/s recorded and works out it's own data from that. So while the Garmin was paused the Edge and Connect make no changes to overall ride data whereas Strava assumes a straight line at constant speed from the last point recorded before the pause to the first one after the resume. It does exclude certain points from the data where it appears something is amiss which Connect doesn't appear to. The best example is where atmospheric pressure changes while you're at a stop in the ride. Connect will attribute you for the climb or descent associated with the pressure change as soon as you start riding again whereas Strava ignores it.

This is what the Bryton graph shows:
And this is what the Strava graph shows:
Notice that each time I go under a road, the speed drops very low, at Thomas Rd it says I'm only doing 6.3km/h, when I was actually doing around 25km/h.
I think Strava interprets the data at face value, it doesn't try to smooth out any anomalies. So each time a signal is lost, it thinks I'm going nowhere. I don't know how it works out an arbitrary speed of e.g. 6.3km/h, it must think I've gone through a wormhole or something. But with the Bryton (and I think Garmin Connect is similar) it interpolates the readings from one point where the signal was good, to the next point where the signal was good, and averages it out over that missing distance.
I do remember when riding through the underpasses that the speed on the GPS determined speed looked correct, the signal said it was strong. So I don't know exactly what is going on.

Bryton:
Strava:
Strava does interpolate between readings at either end of the tunnel. But the speeds are somewhat different. At one slow point Bryton said I was doing 5:52min/km, while Strava said I was doing 8:49min/km at the same point (8.9km mark).

For the sake of comparisons here's my profile from both strava and garmin connect.
stravaprofile by _granty, on Flickr
garminprofile by _granty, on Flickr
They are quite different and Strava will translate the pauses as pauses and include them in the profile as periods of no speed. The prominent flatlines are stop to help mate fix puncture, rests at top of hills. Strava then translates these as rests, which is something Garmin doesn't do it seems.
And at one point garmin has me descending at 180kph.
edit: higher res
