My ride from last night has also not gone onto Strava as normal - it's usually pretty instant. Sounds like there's a problem their end. I have uploaded it manually to Strava for now - I'll have to keep an eye out for whether it duplicates it at some point
Never used it but would likely just be alot of huff and puffing - might sound a bit strange!
It would be a good function to try out though.

Same here with yesterday's ride, hasn't reached strava yet. Furthermore, I tried to do a "real" league ride, stage 3 of the current (Puerto de Benifallim. Penàguila - Torremanzanas) . But I just don't understand the interface (anybody does?) and I seem to be doing something wrong when trying to do the league rides on my own schedule. Thing is, I copied stage 3 ride and I challenged someone who had come close to me in last Thursday's group ride (don't remember who). I rode against a bunch of ghosts (who again were quite happy to tease me on downhills) and I finally arrived between C j bon and kev. But the thing is, the ride does not seem to be recognised as a league ride and my time is not listed in the individual classification ?. On Monday I also tried to ride stage 1 (Paris) but then I realised that choosing the ride was not enough to make it count on the league: thus that is why I copied it yesterday and challenged one of the riders. I thought that it would count because all the ghosts were there, but it doesn't. So how exactly do I have to do it? The interface is the weirdest possible: just arriving to the league ride calendar takes me forever and when I finally find it I don't know how I did it

I can't even talk to the wife when I'm on the trainer (probably not a bad thing ) never mind you lot
.She's even tryed to make conversation when I'm giving it the beans and with my headphones on
.The interface is rubbish but you sort of get used to it after a while.
The problem your having is that the Chaingang league rides expire after approx a week. So at the minute it shows The Big One in Challenge Paguera-Mallorca as active on the league page, but it also lists stages 1 to 4 below for reference. You can copy these rides to allow you to ride them but it wont count on the league as the closing date has past.
Bottom line is - once you get onto the league page only ride what is listed as an active stage. If you copy a ride to your scheduled rides listing, always look out for a cup sign beside the ride in the listings - if its not an active stage it'll likely only show a symbol with three heads meaning its a ride from the group which won't count towards the league.

@JLaw , can you help with this please. Don't fancy riding that again. Not before tonight's ride anyway
Well your rides are now showing in the Goat League and you are in 3rd place. I am in 2nd place but as we have both done all rides I am confused by thisMy rides from last night havent come across yet either. Im not that bothered as im doing some secret training anyway so it saves me having to go in and make them private.
.Could it be that you didn't try very hard on the other 4 rides?

There lots of groups but i would urge you to join the goats and the chain gang here. We are all of different abilities looking to get fitter and have some fun and craic at the same time. Everyone is welcoming and supportive. In fact theres a longish ride tonight if you are interested
Sounds like the Mountain Goats and Chain Gang is for you.
Brilliant tactic by the way. Lulling us all into a false sense of security. One that I entirely approve of and should be encouraged in the above leagues.
