Strava Users Faster than Average?

Hi all,

I ride mostly in NJ, in areas where there are a lot of cyclists. While I'm out, I usually pass about as many people as I let pass me -- I'm no speedster but not particularly slow either. I climb decently, but am not setting any records.

On Strava, however, I am routinely near the back of the pack on every major segment in my area. Yesterday I set a PR on a big climb in my area, and I'm still ranked around 2,000 out of 2,400 people.

So, I guess my question is, are slow people not using Strava at all? While I'm out riding I certainly don't feel like I'm the slowest guy out there, but Strava says otherwise. Has anyone else encountered this?
