Ghost rider?

Racing
1

I did the Hill Climbing thing on Sgurr yesterday, and during the race I was chasing a rider who I could see in the list on the right hand side. I started wondering why his time difference to me was shifting in an odd way - first 1 second ahead, then three seconds, then zero seconds - but the really strange thing was that I couldn’t see his avatar nor his dot on the minimap. So I was basically chasing a ghost.

He wasn’t wearing a HRM, so even if there was some sort of cheating involved, he won’t bother anyone on ZP, but he is listed in Companion as the winner of the B race, so I was wondering if this is just me missing something.

I have a recording of the race in which you can even see on the right hand side of the screen that this K.Zup finishes and gets a PR without having been visible throughout the race.

Where in the race did this happen?

I guess the whole race, but his name only became visible to me on the back half of the climb as I passed other riders. His name acted almost as you’d expect on the list of riders’ times, only there was no avatar and no green dot. I can send you the YT link if you want

You only noticed it on the second climb?

Forgive my stupidity. But how do I do that? Can’t post it here.

You could find me @MrPedel on YT. Latest vid released.
