Strava missing part of my ride

Hi, I have done my first ride with Strava tonight and it has missed the first quarter roughly of my ride. Is there any way of editing this in?

Probably not.

Best u can do, is manually add the missing bit as a separate ride, just time and distance.

If it's missing the first bit, you've probably got a blind spot set up.
I do this for a quarter of a mile around my house so that nobody who can see my rides (and which bike I did it on), know my address and come nick the bikes. But it can be adjusted to suit.

You should still see the ‘blind spot’ in your own Strava feed, but others don’t. Use the Strava help desk; I once had them realign a section I had ridden where GPS drift had put me off the route a bit - they adjusted it for me. Of course if there’s no data recorded then nobody can say how fast you were going.

Thanks for the replies, I think it was a GPS blind spot problem, Good points about hiding the address so that gives me some work to do to edit my setup. Will go out again tonight and see what happens this time.

You could always just do the ride again. Razz

LOL to the inference that it was "look at me and what I did" which I suppose I should of expected. In truth I was just a bit irritated that the first part was missed, only after downloading it into the website did I realise that it compares me with other people who did the same segments. I won't bother editing the route in because I wasn't bothered but knowing it does comparisions in the future will be interesting to compare.

I do have a cycling computer fitted but during the period the bike had been tossed at the back of the garage the unit had somehow lost its battery cover and although I have it working with the battery held in with selotape I can't get the damn thing to pick up from the wheel sensor so I am going to have to replace it.
