Wrong. It's easy enough to edit a Strava ride using the "crop"
command. I had to do that on my Friday trudge, where I forgot to stop logging and ended up with some rather impressive walking statistics on
the way to a lavish Chinese lunch. <https://www.strava.com/activities/14357311501>

This must be another of youer really bright days. All you have to do isw
turn your Garmin on and drive a course in your car which Flunky clearly did.
I live in the deep dark forest, where there aren't too many "really
bright days". Right now, it's 5.2 watts/meters^2. Fortunately,
things do look brighter at around noon.
I don't own a Garmin cycling computer. I use a phone (Moto G Power
2020) and the free Strava app: <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.strava>
I'm also wondering if you really had sensors for each of your 15(?)
bicycles or if you moved one or two sensors between bicycles as
needed. Of course, you recalibrated each sensor when you moved it.
I have driven away in my car and forgotten to turn off the app. It
happens more often than I care to admit. I solved that problem by
hanging a small sign over my steering wheel with a reminder.
I always crop the ride data to eliminate the part where I forgot to
turn off the data logger. I usually walk (not ride) in the morning
and do any necessary edits on my home computer a few hours later. If
you want to see my data before I edit it, I usually walk on Fridays
from 9:30am to about 11:30am PDT and make the necessary edits
somewhere between 3pm and 10pm PDT.

You can fix this two ways. One would be to link to Zen's actual post
where he said what you claim. Problem is, that's impossible.
Another way would be to admit you're wrong yet again. You've managed to
do that only a couple times, but it's not impossible.
There is absolutely no way that you could have missed that claim of 2, 200 mile rides from someone that couldn't ride 50 miles.
So you're lying because that is what you do.

I closeed my Strava account as I've said before - because when I did a ride the 20 year olds would ride the same course and then brag about how much faster they were. Half of these guys were Cat 1 or 2!
This was the same reason I stopped riding with the club - I am not a racer and if I'm going fast it pisses me off that the club racers would take a different route so that they could get there before me.
And up to four years ago I was outclimbing most of the people in the club without trying to.
So I took to riding with the slowpokes at the back.
I could drop anyone on a decent. Probably because I didn't like riding close to others at speed.

This must be another of youer really bright days. All you have to do isw >>>> turn your Garmin on and drive a course in your car which Flunky clearly did.
Strava is rather better at flagging such stuff up, MTBers are common for
this, ie forget to turn it off, so have the drive home as well!
I just noticed that Tom suggest that:
"All you have to do isw turn your Garmin on and drive a course in your car..."
That's rather difficult because I don't walk much in areas frequented
by motor vehicles, hike on paved roads, engage in racing, etc. I
suspect that Tom expects me to drive my car on the same narrow dirt
trails on which I hike. I don't think my Subaru will fit: <https://www.reddit.com/r/norcalhiking/comments/116xhb0/quail_hollow_ranch_county_park_feb_3_2023/>

Hmmm... Dec 20, 2019. The current sign now includes 4(?) additional
"No" items.
I live in the deep dark forest, where there aren't too many "reallyI rather suspect it showed his bragging rights to be rather unfounded!
bright days". Right now, it's 5.2 watts/meters^2. Fortunately,
things do look brighter at around noon.
I don't own a Garmin cycling computer. I use a phone (Moto G Power
2020) and the free Strava app:
<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.strava>
I'm also wondering if you really had sensors for each of your 15(?)
bicycles or if you moved one or two sensors between bicycles as
needed. Of course, you recalibrated each sensor when you moved it.
I have driven away in my car and forgotten to turn off the app. It
happens more often than I care to admit. I solved that problem by
hanging a small sign over my steering wheel with a reminder.
I always crop the ride data to eliminate the part where I forgot to
turn off the data logger. I usually walk (not ride) in the morning
and do any necessary edits on my home computer a few hours later. If
you want to see my data before I edit it, I usually walk on Fridays
from 9:30am to about 11:30am PDT and make the necessary edits
somewhere between 3pm and 10pm PDT.

Could you remind me why you closed your Strava account and deleted all
your saved data?
Actually, Tom's Strava data didn't show many unfounded claims. At the
time, I was being very diplomatic and did NOT post many remarks about
Tom's rides. My only comments involved Tom making occasional mistakes
and using his rides as "proof" whether Abbott Labs had closed one of
their building in the area. I didn't fact check all of Tom's rides,
but the one's I checked were generally accurate for location and
fairly inaccurate at to speed and distance probably because Tom didn't calibrate his speed and cadence sensor or crop is data the few times
when he accidentally included a car ride. I suspect the only reason
Tom was posting his rides to Strava was because Lou Holtman had asked
Tom to post his Strava rides (approx May 2021 thru Feb 2024).
I find it useful as a diary and as a social tool, plus I do like the route >> builder as I like the path less traveled so can see if someone has used X
trail and when? Ie is it likely to exist on the ground or does it exist
only on the map and so on.
I record my rides on Strava mostly to impress my friends, some of whom
are becoming couch potatoes (fat and lazy). I also want to get better aquatinted with the program and how it works. Also, because my
cardiologist repeatedly demands that I get more exercise.
