You can load routes on strava and follow them.

How do you do that? I'd rather use strava if possible.

From a PC, build or make a route from the drop-down menu "Dashboard", then click on "My routes". Once you have saved the route, you can load it from the record tab on your phone, when starting a ride.

Here is a guide that goes much more into detail: http://blog.strava.com/discover-a-new-route-follow-it-from-your-phone-7749/

100 mile route is now closed!!!

Crap - just missed it...

I'll make up for it by riding 16 miles and 2400' of climbing somewhere else. Have a great event and looking forward to the tales and photos.

Is there a way to upload the route from Ride w/ GPS or Garmin Connect into Strava? I played around w/ Ride, and it wouldn't let me do it as there are no time stamps on it. Can build them by hand, but that'll take a while...

The only way of getting around it, is by saving a friend's ride into your routes.

I'm building them up manually. Strava isn't really too good for that. Won't be as exact as RwGPS, but what can you do...

Use manual mode and you can get really accurate, but it takes time.

If you are a premium member, you can just export the route.

Create the route from the Garmin Connect file, or .gpx file.

Here's the 100k and 50k I built up manually. Are they able to download for you?

Thanks. I think I got it on my Strava. I just duplicated your route and made it mine. We'll see if it works.

That's the trick, isn't it...

And here's 100 miles of fun: https://www.strava.com/routes/4341799
This version comes up with another 2,000 feet of elevation... awesome!!!

Ridewithgps has it at 10,000 feet... Strava says 13000. I'm really hoping it's 10,000.

Yeah, don't know why there's a discrepancy. You'll have to let us know which is correct at the end of the day!!!

Bwhahahaha.

   You're not getting a like.

Ride with GPS is not noted for its accuracy on elevation. GPS is notoriously bad at determining elevation (which is why Garmin has stuck with a barometric altimeter).

 

[Cyclotourist]

Depending on the actual, it's approaching Leadville #'s!

 

[Runs with Scissors]

But approximately 10,000 feet lower in altitude!

None of you are getting likes...

Just look at it this way.....it'll be your biggest ride.

I am so torn about whether or not to put the derailleur back on. I've done a lot of centuries, but never on a single speed and dirt.

Leave the skinny tires on and you'll be fine.

What's the worst that could happen? A bit o' shoelace express??

Well there is that...

 

[Faust29]

The skinny tires are on, and I'm going to swap out the Mallets for Egg Beaters, saving .46 pounds! I like the mallets, but that's a lot of weight...
