I am fairly new to Strava, only having used it for a few weeks. Mostly do training rides on my road bike. I take my best bike to work sometimes for a longer ride home.
I got a couple of KOMs near my work, on a rolling bit of road. Get an email a week later saying someone has beaten it easily.
Couple of weeks later I really go for it and treat it like the last km of a road race and I get the KOM by 1 second 🙂 Knackered for the next 5 miles but recovered eventually.
Next day look it up again and my ride is Flagged – saying part of ride done in vehicle!
Clicked the button to say it was OK and done on my bike and the flag was removed.
Looked a few days ago and the flag is back. Contacted Strava and they looked at my ride and said it was fine. They implied that another user had flagged my ride.
The only user who knew that I had got the KOM was the guy who had the KOM before who seems to have loads of local KOMs.
A bit annoyed that someone thinks I’m cheating. Know how Chris Froome feels like now! Segment only took about 1.5 minutes to do.
