Questions about segments

Hi,

1- Do you know shere to find a description of symbols on the segment screen ? When I start a segment, a dedicated screen appears but I don't understand precisely each symbols and data and nothing in manual.

2- Do you know if it is possible to deactivate this screen appearing automaticaly without deactivating segments ?

3-Virtual partners seems not working with segments ? Do you know how to have VP working with segments ?

Thanks
  • I will try but can only answer from my own experience using Strava segments,
    1 when the segment comes up on screen and your racing it on the left you have distance of segment, and how far to go before segment is complete, on the right how far you are off your target of a KOM or personal best or target time, + means you are are ahead - you are behind.
    2. No i don't but you can cancel segment before it starts by pressing down button before it starts on the countdown to start.
    3. Virtual partner still works for me, I have it set to auto effort, so it will change depending on my effort, a good idea because after racing a few segments you get tired and need to ease off.but it will not work while on a segment obviously as you are racing a segment but it carries on after the segment finishes.
    Hope this helps a bit, I have been using strava segments for a while now, overall quite pleased wish the numbers on the watch and data from the segment screens were bigger, as they are difficult to read especially at full effort..
  • Thanks for your help xv1234, it is clearer now for me.
