Yeah, no true fan is ever disappointed by the outcome of a result.
That's why they're true fans
Did you just post that there was no false flat and to back it up post a picture where everyone can clearly see the false flat sections?there was no false flat
That isn’t a false flatDid you just post that there was no false flat and to back it up post a picture where everyone can clearly see the false flat sections?
Technical nitpicking and semantics really. For the purpose of general forum discussion, describing those sections as false flat is more than accurate enough. Let' s face it, you got caught pants down here.That isn’t a false flat
That isn’t a false flat
You posting history says so. In no uncertain terms.So British good, Everyone else bad?
seems about right
What's an example for false flat then?its too much of a rise to be a false flat
I haven't done an exact calculation, but isn't it around over 10km at less than 2%?That isn’t a false flat
Come back with a true calculation of that stretch of road then we can talkI haven't done an exact calculation, but isn't it around over 10km at less than 2%?
How is that not a false flat?
Clearly a road that doesn’t rise up as much as this oneWhat's an example for false flat then?
Just did. Never was the best at maths, but came out to (depending on when you consider it to start/end) between 1.5 and 1.8%.Come back with a true calculation of that stretch of road then we can talk

Seriously, if you don't have an example you might as well admit itWhat ever one suits your argument
