Cafeend Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 I'd take times and distances with a grain of salt. I've ridden people and we can both finish and get different time. Speed and distance. I am only interested in a completed distance personallySent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 (edited) 1 hour ago, HoneyBadger said: Peddlers is the same length. Lots of people are creating duplicate segments (RIP - Ronan's Infinite Playground, PP 5.0? - Full East Entrance, etc). The Strava times on Peddlers are about 2 minutes faster than it actual takes, this is because Strava seems to drop the 1st or last 2 minutes of everyone's lap (no idea why). For example my Strava P.R. is 15:24, but the actual time for that run was 17:14. Look at the picture for where Strava Started and Stopped the segment Yeah, it's all just too close together. Like you said, most every run misses the first few turns. But the endpoint is even more variable. All the competitive top times start like that, but end closer to the end. My runs are hit and miss whether the endpoint is close or not. Unfortunately I decided to flag my likely PR last week because it looked just like this one. Had it stuck me in the top 10 somewhere I wouldn't mind. But I'll be damned if I'm going to take a KOM on such a competitive segment by such an obvious glitch. Which reminds me, I really wish you could flag segments instead of the whole ride. I had some other legit top tens on this ride. I could crop the ride and pull PP out of it altogether...but that sucks too. Edited November 7, 2019 by Barry to word better 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horncpa Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Definitely wish you could just remove a segment of a ride. Had the same situation where it thinks I did one segment to quick but I did really well on another segment so I don't want to delete whole ride.

circuitbreaker Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 the same problem exists for shuttle runs: https://support.strava.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/213526947-Remove-segments-for-shuttling-uplifts ignoring segments would be a relatively easy option for strava to add, but they don't seem interested.

I have this issue regularly with Ankle Biter. I get PRs all the time when riding on the BCRT which parallels the trail, but on opposite sides of the creek! I ended-up making two new routes on the trail where their were none, I think that it worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiantm3 Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 This is interesting news.

Albert Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 That is very interesting indeed. Nice alternate route to Parmer if you want to ride north to Lake Georgetown. 🙂 I wish they'd work on the missing segment of Brushy Creek Regional Trail from where it begins on Hairy Man Road over to I-35, as it's a bit of a pain to get there from east of I-35. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the contractor will work with AJ to try and not destroy too much of the trail like when the new concrete was poured near Peddler's Pass.

The only part that isn't is the section between SN and Brushy where the new trail will stay along the creek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneyBadger Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 (edited) AJ will adjust the trail as needed. The Parks director is ok with the mtb trails staying or adjusting around the concrete trail. I see this trail as a huge benefit to the Brushy Creek Single Track, we'll no longer have to ride through a neighborhood to get from SN to the rest of Brushy, how cool is that.

HoneyBadger Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 So who's coming to Bandera Bike Park tomorrow? I talked with Seth and it drains fast and will be open. Nothing around here is going to be rideable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckt Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Thought I'd give the west end a try since it drys before the rest of the trail, but it needs another day or so.Twin Lakes and Snail, it was slick but no pick-up until the creek bottom of Snail. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping to ride today, did an 8 mile run and checked all the trail entrances and they were pretty muddy. Saw a couple people out riding and they’re tires were caked. Oh well. I’ll check again tomorrow morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenMTBrider Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Rode this morning. Minimal dirt pickup from Deception, Picnic and Snow White. Mulligan (g-outs), Gnargasm and Peddlers need more time to dry. With that being said, damp ground/leaves suck and I was hurting for traction on some of the rocky sections. I personally wouldn’t go out of my way to ride at Brushy today. RPR would be a better option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRider3141 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 This weekend, AJ from the Peddler posted a picture of a bridge under construction for the BCRT. Where is this?

This would also be a good time to ride Spider Mountain. They are open Veterans Day and offering huge discounts to veterans. I went yesterday and had an absolute blast.

I heard one property didn't want to sell/ allow it to move forward? @First Blood I think you said something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
