Cheating with Strava segments

There is a segment on one of my routes to work/weekend routes where I am certain asterisks should litter the leaderboard.

You can either start this segment after a mild downhill and sharp right turn, after a two mile climb and left turn at a light, or by blowing through the same [green] light after a wicked steep descent. I have never been lucky enough to make the light. If you do, you get a 35+ mph head start. It may just be me, but the segment leaderboards motivate me to do better.

Check out Monday's commute forecast for 6:00 a.m.

Anyone else have Strava segments where questionable results can be reasonably explained?
