Tonight I beat my best time by a long way but on the leaderboard it is still a shit time from a few rides back? How do I force it to refresh?
Is the ride private?
Nope
If you view the segment, click on Actions then "Refresh My results".
It was 😫
You are Rohan Dennis and I claim your contract termination fee
If you go into edit the activity, are the privacy controls set to "Everyone?"
I think if it's set to just followers your latest segment time won't appear on the leaderboards.
Are your other segments from tonight's ride showing correctly?
Sometimes my phone decided to "hide" segments. which can only be unhidden if you do so from a PC or laptop. and then refresh.
If it's inside your privacy zone it won't show up on leader boards.
How do you know you beat your best time on Strava? Does it show as a listed segment on the ride results? As long as the segment starts AND finishes (even if it passes through) outside of your privacy zone it should pick it up.
Segment flagged as hazardous?
Actually the segment can start/finish inside one of your privacy zones, it's your ride that needs to start or finish outside them. So if the segment finishes inside a privacy zone then ride until you know you are outside it then stop the recording. Strava will then add that time to the segment's leaderboard, if you've bettered your previous time of course.
Unless it's 'everyone', it won't be on leaderboard, but be warned that if set to everyone, then everyone can see the ride, even if you've got privacy controls set on who can follow you. All you have to do is click on the time on the leaderboard and you see the whole ride.
Which may be an issue if you ride sensitive areas (not just start/end with privacy zone).
Which is why all my rides are follower only now as I'd like to not advertise certain areas, and to be honest I don't give a crap about leaderboards. Only thing of interest is comparing against my previous rides, which I can do with the leaderboard filter set to myself, or to a friend out of curiosity but I don't need a leaderboard for that. Has long been asked of Strava to implement group / follower only leaderboards, but they ignore us on that as much as MTB as a ride type.
Almost done now with Strava anyway. The spat with Relive is another reason to drop it.
Sometimes segments just aren't picked up on your ride. I have certain segments that routinely use for training, and there's a certain one, every so often just doesn't register on my ride. I'm guessing it's just something to do with the accuracy of that segment and whether Strava decides I was riding within the tolerances of accuracy that day.
