Strava question.

Yes but its only happened once.

Phones have something called A-GPS, assisted GPS. When Google did streetview they also scanned WIFI SSID when recording images and location. It is used in A-GPS to get a quick location by picking up any SSID in range. I suspect the SSID at the COOP was the same as at the other COOP, so Android said, you are there not here.

I have a question too.
On a live segment it’s showing me plus or minus to the KOM but can I get + or - to my own PR?
How do you change that? Garmin 1040 user.

Only by shaving your legs and being a wannabe pro pretending to ride the Tour de France every time you ride! You also have to use kms, not miles.

Make your PR the KOM is how you change it.

I don't know about eth Garmin, but on my Wahoo, you just press one of the three bottom buttons to switch between KOM and PR. I would be surprised if Garmin don't have a similar facility.

That's why I still subscribe, to see my times compared to age group and my previous efforts. I think I've had 5 KOMs in past and I reckon 4 were with a stonking tailwind.

I had one from 2012 until 2023. A nice 4.4% ave over 0.55 of a mile but 'C' shaped so if you had a stonking tail wind at the start, you'd have a stonking headwind finish etc, so it was quite resilient until some one beat it by 2sec. I did it on a heavier bike so technically I'm still the fastest
