Sorry misunderstood, whenever I think of recumbents I think of the trike version, I always forget about 2 wheeled ones.

Just had an email to say I've lost my KOM, beaten by 26 seconds, wonder if he went out to get it or just happened across it, although he must have done well there's 2 gates & last week there was still lots of deep mud.
I still hold 2 up hill KoMs and several on the flat. All are fairly short sprint sections.
I'm pretty good at an explosive sprint, so long as it's not more than 30 seconds.
Best one is an up hill one on a popular route near here that I've held for 4 years and has had 1447 riders attempt it. I took the title on that one when I was 61.

I was out yesterday coming back from a ride a couple of miles short of 20 & remembered this KOM so I swung around that way & tried to attack it properly as i was feeling quite good, I took 1:30 off the time, & nearly 2 minutes off my previous best, but it's still not showing as having the KOM, does each one get checked?
Sometimes the Kom didn't instantly appear as soon as you upload the ride Check the ride now again to see if it appears

Strava is normally really robust for me and puts my segment times up straight away, along with their position in the leaderboards. A couple of weeks ago I turned myself inside out chasing a KOM that has eluded me for 4 years - when I got home and checked Strava I had done it! But this was the one day that Strava was struggling with demand and it took an hour or so before my new KOM appeared on the leaderboard.

I got one last week. I was aiming for a club record, but got the KoM. Not telling you buggers which it is else you'll go out and steal it.
Its gratifying that every other rider behind me up to #12 is either a racer at some level, or a coach.

Just looked & still not there after 24 hours, I'm more curious than anything else, I did wonder if it had been flagged or because it was a considerable jump it has to be verified. The original KOM was 9:10, my previous best time was 9:36, yesterday I set a 7:39 not sure what that is in percentage terms but it's quite a bit
Nice try, I do expect somebody to come along soon & put a sub 5 minute in very easily.@Phaeton if you post a link to Strava to check it . Them we can see where it is out of interest only

I got cught out once. I'd busted a KoM, but it didn't show. Turns out the end of the segment was within my privacy zone, so although it showed me the time it wouldn't list me on the lederboard.

I can see that but as I had it before logic dictates I should be able to get it again,
Strava has been playing up with segments lately,Ive seen people waiting over a day for the crown,You can see they are quicker than the kom when you check but it just shows as a PB..annoying but I'm sure you should eventually get it.....also if something looks suspect,you should get an email asking about it..this is quite a new feature only added a few weeks ago.
