Sorry to drag this up again...
If I stop on a climb that is a segment, does this count against my time, or is it timed only when moving?
I did an epic climb today, really went for it, over taking other riders (this is rare for me!) and kept a good speed, only to have to stop for temporary traffic lights for ages 3/4 up.
Does this explain my slooooow time for that segment or was I actually really slow?
Thanks
I think unless you have your gps set to autostop when stationary it'll include that time too?
i hold the slowest recorded climb on a fairly famous local hill, as i stopped in the pub 3/4 of the way up for an hour and a quarter.
garmin was paused and all sorts.
funny really.
Irrespective of auto start/stop Strava seems to time from start to finish. Makes the London segments even harder to get unless you RLJ.
Thought as much! Nevermind it'll have to be a world record beating, land speed olympic mega record in my head only.
But I'll still wear my kind of the mountains jersey!

Makes you wonder if London and he trails will be full of lemmings shortly ๐
I'm pretty sure it takes the time as a whole. I guess as if you were riding a long climb you could stop halfway have a bit of a rest and hammering the 2nd half. I have done a downhill segment which took 5 mins to descend and the recorded time was around 9 mins. This was due to stopping right at the start as one of the group had fallen off just trying to get on his bike, therefore 4 mins of the segment were spent mocking him for falling off before we'd even got going. I think it does tell you moving and resting time on the segments.
Pub stop.
think i took about 18 mins that day (which would have put me on pg 3 of the table anyways - although the top bit was post pub!)
don't go up there often enough to have set another time yet, so i remain bottom. almost proud of it though. im the only cyclist out of 127 on strava to have gone to the pub!
Haha recognise some of those names there Tracknicko. I used to ride with Sheffrec before moving to France. Great guys.

think darryl is pretty proud to be top.
fair play though. long old hill
