The blue line is following the road, you can see where the garmin has stopped and started recording. But when I make the file it does not change.
Its annoying because it went wonky on a nice little gravel climb.

I only have a handful of KOMs but I find that more than half of the emails telling me I've lost a KOM have been the result of someone leaving their GPS on in their car (massive speeds). So I always check them and flag the rides if I suspect motor assisted times.Xplora wrote:AWESOME. Got one of my KOMs back... a long one down a main road in Sydney. Not sure how I managed to keep that average but I guess it's not hard when you are pounding out 45kmh for a lot of it? I think the KOM must have retracted their time?

Had the pleasure of meeting a gentleman at the LBS by chance and he knew my name from the local leaderboard. I had stolen one of his KOMs, but beaten the old time by 20 seconds I then took another 8 seconds off that to improve the KOM and dedicated the ride to him

I did a cracking 116kms yesterday and the Bryton 35 crashed after I rode into the garage Trek_Arty took a KOM and I'm sure I beat him on the segment I won't throw it in the bin just yet, but I can't really have much useful data from a time/distance measurement... don't need GPS for that

I've had two Lost your KOM emails that have been restored by the time I logged on again... makes you laugh at just how little difference in speed on HILLS the cars manage.

A vast majority of the country roads here simply dont have any shoulders and the edges of the road have huge holes/breaks/damage to them.
Am hoping that I still get to keep the KOM and that they dont ditch the segment into the "never to be seen again" bin.

I don't have those KOM issues, I'm not quick enough to keep up with the current crop of leaders... G.S is just a bit too fast for me. Zozza I will deal with, eventually when I start to get my speed back. (and then get the dreaded email a few days later, probably).
All good fun.

The KOM and leaderboard listing on the segment page will dissapear but the segment will remain in your KOM list and I believe it will stay there now even if someone does a quicker time for it.gretaboy wrote:Am hoping that I still get to keep the KOM and that they dont ditch the segment into the "never to be seen again" bin.

I've decided to start trying to hunt a few more of my local ones that GS hasn't taken - I wouldn't be too keen on taking on Zozza's KOMs though, because he is SUPER quick as well. Check out Toongabbie Hook... 46kmh AVERAGE.g-boaf wrote:Zozza I will deal with, eventually when I start to get my speed back. (and then get the dreaded email a few days later, probably).
