Ah that segment - no chance when I come through as it's usually rush hour. I'm a lowly 19th

1. Unfortunately I don't think there is?
2. Are you saying that the gps data on your ride is incorrect? This gives more weight to why someone would flag your ride-if it's incorrect reading 43mph on your route, where else is it incorrect?.
3. What's wrong with it? Have you asked on here about repairs?
4. See 2.
5. It may imply to some people that you are not a "serious" cyclist, indeed not someone that can hold 30+ for a mile or so. Hence, first impressions, which may lead to some people not taking your rides seriously.
Thought I'd won it back with this ride: http://app.strava.com/rides/17509045
... but alas, while the traffic light gods were with me, the GPS gods had me riding through about 20m West of the road. Should have had around 4:50 otherwise.

Blimey, just looked at the comments on you KOM ride lol, never seen anything like that on any of my segements, Strava should be fun!
Similar type of segement around my way and the KOM is up at 40+ mph http://app.strava.com/segments/946587

i got bored the other day so created this segment now to find another 5 seconds for KOM! http://app.strava.com/segments/2044781
It's imperative that you find that 5 seconds... If only to ensure that there's once less 'Malcolm' in the world with a KOM!

i took it easy at the begining! lol. plus i had a backpack on so wasnt very aero! if i get a good run out of the roundabout i should be on for it!!!
The segment count for my commute is now up to at least 11, however they're all pretty popular and over the summer guys have slowly taken most of them away from me, even though I think I've almost held all the KOMs at one point or another.
Is it incredibly sad that either tonight or in the morning I'm planning to ride to work and back on the carbon bike, even though I don't have to go to work, just so I can attack them all properly without panniers, mudguards and the slow commuter steed?!

The GPS data for that segment may well be, it's not incorrect for the whole ride, that ride was just a steady mostly recovery ride but I got to a segment and thought, oh bugger it I'll give it a blast.
As for my Garmin, battery dead, screen just white.

1. As I was saying, if there are gps errors on your ride then this may lead some people to flag your ride.

I understand that, but my flagged rides are those with no GPS errors.
Thanks for the link.

Got a couple of pb's today, nice ride to work and back on the Secteur instead of the laden CX.
Knocked 5 seconds off one segment, and 3 off another, little steps
