Yes, we said the same thing, I think you misunderstood my point to be the opposite of what you said. It is much harder to average 20mph while stopping, but if someone auto pauses their ride, and then says they averaged 20, I'm saying they cheated, not the other way around.Nope.
I'm saying someone averaging 20, WITH autostop, who has to stop and slow down and accelerate, is working SIGNIFICANTLY harder than someone who averages 20 but never has to stop at a stop sign or stoplight and just maintains steady power/speed.
So what I'm taking from this is you think the first guy is "masking" their ride and actually has it easier because he's not including the stops. But that's absolutely not the case because slowing down and accelerating multiple times and still maintaining 20 is obviously harder to do.
And if that's not what you're saying, then I apologize.
Yes, but I slow down at the stop signs and DONT have auto pause turned on, and still average 20, I worked way harder than they guy who had it on, because I would have had a higher average, let's say 22, if I had turned it on. That's my point. I still think we agree.
