Watching Action on the Leaderboards

@hanahsdax said in Watching Action on the Leaderboards:
The ghosting issues are for real. I’ve had two instances in which the sensor didn’t deactivate.
Don't mean to hijack this thread, but seeing as someone in our rather small community here has seen this problem, just want to add my comments.
As I've mentioned, my GT was one of the first to ship and is sitting at home in the box and I won't be back until the end of the month. I'm watching this issue unfold and it does seem that quite a few folks are mentioning the problem. Some seem quite serious/dangerous, while others, like @HanahsDax, more or less under control. While I don't really believe it's a widespread issue, I do believe that even 1 or 2 ghost boards is a problem.
I'll stay abreast of this until I get home, but right now I'm thinking I'll attach a leash to the mag handle and hold it in my hand, just in case. Two scenarios I want to avoid are 1) the worst case of my board injuring someone and 2) my board ghosting off into the Sacramento river that I ride along! LOL
Additionally, if my GT doesn't disengage even once when I'm not on it, I'll be getting FM to fix it ASAP. There's no way a OW should stay engaged when no rider is aboard.

@onedangt @HanahsDax Forgot to say, FM are offering to replace faulty pads if they’re ghosting. They do ask for the faulty one to be shipped back first though so no riding till you get the new one.

@lia Yeah, saw that. I kinda wonder if that's the entire problem though, as one person said it was ghosting upside down! That shouldn't happen even if the front pad is defective.

@OneDanGT btw ghosting upside down is nothing new. Unfortunately gotta log into FB to see this particular video.
There's this turnover phrase now: Use fender to reduce risk for repetitive runaways!

HanahsDax now at GT Mileage Leaderboard #4!
...and currently riding and adding more miles at 7:15 pm Ohio time.
-
@s-leon Well spotted, zooming up the ranks!
Lets go @HanahsDax ! -
-
@lia HanahsDax is tied for GT Mileage #3!!! (At 9:15 pm Ohio time.)
Edit: And now on the GT Leaderboard, HanahsDax solidly #3 at 10:25pm Ohio time -- and actively riding at 10:33 pm.

ooh! this is getting interesting. we need a proper live feed.

A fair amount of jockeying is going on on the GT mileage Leaderboard. Up from #7, STOKECARTEL briefly took #3 from HanahsDax before getting relegated back to #4. Dedicated rider on the Pint mileage Leaderboard, MattSplat, also seems to have ambitions for higher placement. Like NotSure observed, it would be fun to watch a live feed as changes occur!
Real time 3:27 pm Ohio time, MattSplat is making his move to overtake HanahsDax at GT #3! One mile to go! Paused there, he seems to be daring HanahsDax to make a run for it -- pure speculation on my part.
Tie! For #3 at 3:35 pm Ohio time!
I remember when MattSplat was meteoring up the Pint mileage Leaderboard someone there changed their handle to "StopTheSplat!"
3:42 pm Ohio time and GT #3 now belongs to MattSplat solely!

@s-leon I got to my destination for work. The good news is it’s four miles back to my next location which should put me a mile ahead of Mattsplat. Let’s see if my riding triggers him. It’s 2:35pm Mountain Time. Fun stuff. Snow on its way in a few hours this day will be my last “high mileage” day until the sun clears the roads and paths back up. I’ve got the XR to ride in the snow.
-
And HanahsDax indeed is back to GT #3!!!
-
@s-leon Need to change this thread title to "Leaderboard Play by Play!"
-
MattSplat took the challenge, and regained GT spot #3. Some head-to-head competition there.
-
It is fun to see HanahsDax and other riders yo-yo on the GT mileage Leaderboard. At the moment HanahsDax is #5 -- but the order in the line-up has been shifting and changing quite a bit.
-
The most exciting action now is on the GT mileage Leaderboard! HanahsDax! Your reports as an insider (currently #4) on the GT Leaderboard would be great to see!
-
I suppose hes got no time for that. Riding and texting is dangerous multitasking, you know. X)
-
A lot of action today on the GT mileage leaderboard. GrantBrown making a huge push and currently sitting at #2. Just this morning when I looked he was at #10. Now I currently hold that spot and I’m making my final stand with a night ride here in a few mins before the next wave of snow hits.
-
And just like that CreatureOfTheWheel has over 1,000 miles on their GT.
