OK so I don’t pay too much attention to Strava KOM’ however I do like to see ride on ride improvements. Plus it is nice to see how I stack up against friends and is also a very useful way of charting different routes that I have ridden.
However after absolutely smashing some trails last night I had a peek at who was at the top of some of the segments that I had improved on.
There are some serious world beating riders hiding in Surrey/London. On one of the routes someone had averaged 30km/h smashing down tight twisty trails, on another the KOM had averaged a worldy 146.5 km/h.
How awesome are those guys? How big must their b**** be?
Sorry if it comes across as being sarcastic and I hope they are genuine times and speeds but really, what is the point of owning a KOM if it is false?
Personally I just like seeing that I have improved or having that ‘I rode that quick’ confirmed.
Rant over.
Enjoy your weekends.
