Your estimated power is a dead giveaway and will get flagged. There is a setting in the app/site to hide your activity from leaderboards by default.

This confirms what I've suspected all along: everyone going faster than me is cheating

And everyone going faster than me is on a more powerful ebike

45 km/h up a decent grade!

The hill by my place seems to collect people 'cheating' or forgetting to turn it off with the number of people that drive down to Mallard Point to start their bike ride

pretty sure this guy forgot to turn his strava off, 53 km/hr (faster then the speed limit) up that hill..

She obviously drove to the parking lot, then forgot to turn strava off when she drove home after

Had the same thing happen with someone taking my KOM up in Canmore on spray lakes road. He went fatbiking and left his garmin running while he drove to another location. I reported the ride and immediately got my KOM back.

I think either strava or garmin will pop up with a warning that says something like "It looks like at least part of this ride was done in a vehicle". I've seen it once before when I forgot to turn off my garmin.

How do you flag a ride on strava? I have never seen this til last night but someone flagged one of mine. I had to click "this is all legit" or whatever it was.

Click on the wrench button on the left hand side of the ride page. Some people take things way too seriously lol

Go to the ride on your computer, hit the little wrench on the left, hit 'flag'

Does it tell you if someone takes your kom? Cause this happened right after

[lilmira]

Yes, strava will send you a notification when you lose your KOM.

It must be that "yourex" guy that reported it then. I'm sure most of you have seen him around

ha thats kinda funny, get your KOM stolen, report it and hope that they don't say it was legit

[Boosted131]

I just click the "this is legit" or whatever box and it gave me the KOM back. Funny thing is this section is clearly in the middle of a park, with no vehicle access.

[Boosted131]

For those using Strava, how would you make it so only followers can view your activities? It seems like if I switch it to private then no one can see the ride? Also when you put a ride private, will it count towards your total ride kilometers? Really I am just wanting to share my rides with friends , and not all the random people.

[s_havinga]

For those of you getting KOM's. Do you know where the segment is and push to get the KOM or is it just part of your ride that you happen to crush?

[Brent.ff]

I know where all my segments are now on my commute. Definitely crush mode for when trying for them... was going for one this morning till an offleash dog ruined it

that's one thing I like about Strava, it challenges you to push harder and see how you fare against your own time or others.

I don't go all out on all of them, only some that I want to beat and if it's crowded or headwind, then forget it.

Just did my first day of the dolomites trip. Wow is all that I can say. This place is just beauuutiful. The hotel is super awesome.
