I keep seeing this video on Twitter and keep wondering what the Strava looks like for the cyclist on the left…
Title is probably “Morning Bombing Run”
He probably left his home for a 100 mile ride and had no idea what was going on…
I looked at the records on Strava for a ride I had just done. I’d recommend not doing that under any circumstances. I broke my butt, did the best time I had ever done on that climb, it was brutal and took me 31 minutes. So what did I find? Someone did the same climb in 9 minutes! 9 MINUTES!! Makes me look like a turtle… Wow… I quit… ![]()

That feeling when you know you missed a turn, but you enjoy the down-hill so you keep going. You ignore that little voice that warns that this is probably a very bad idea and prefer to think that ‘there might be another turn’. Of course there isn’t. So after 25 minutes you finally come to your senses, stop to check the map, and have to go the same way back. Except it’s now uphill. And you’re out of water. Don’t ignore the little voice!
OMG. You nailed it. Last year I was doing a 700 km back country bike packing race. A long and fast 11 km downhill… I thought I heard a beep from the gps but convinced myself that I did not. Well I missed the turn at km 1 of 11. 90 degrees… Ran out of water on the way back up the hill and I did not cross another stream for over 30 km. Normally not a huge issue but I was going over mountains. It took forever…
Lesson learned… Ya… Thats it… Lesson learned (Ya right!)
But enjoy the hell out of every descent, mistake or not, because someone out there is riding the couch!
Why do people hate on triathletes so much. Although I do love it when they crash on their TT bikes at the back of a club ride.
Oh, wait…
Well the bike lanes suck where I live and slow me down.

I’m guessing you missed adding a pic or other attachment?
No I thought I was responding to the previous post. Clicked the general reply rather than the post reply -_-
Isn’t that the truth on pretty much everything these days.
