You can also just log into strava with the garmin plugged in. Select upload and it uploads all new activities.

I tried that but my Strava stayed empty :( , a friend suggested the method I posted and it worked. Maybe I'm just a Stravanoob :D  :lol:

I have just upgraded to whateva it is called, pro/premium etc. Stopped using WKO as the Strava is now integrated and I do my planning training logs etc. as well as to check my fitness/fatigue/form (sic) prior to a race. And yes the new training programs are not so bad.

 

So yes I use it all the time. But I also still use Endomondo, but going to kill that as they cant sort out the duplicate uploads.

Is there a life outside Strava?

I recently "broke" the screen on my smart phone and have had to go basic for a bit while a flipping expensive screen gets delivered and I thought agg i'll be fine without email,twitter,facebook, tappatalk and strava. Well I was wrong! very wrong! While im coping by logging on with my pc in the evenings I do miss all that stuff. So NO there is no life after strava. Luckily my strava is via my garmin but I did have the app on my phone and I often used to log in and see who was doing what.

I really like the new feature which compares your progress on regular rides/runs and shows you were you are improving...as for koms....well if I know they exist I try hard but I don't go out to try take them...

 

I'm a facts and figures guy so I like to see all the details. Also helps with keeping progress of my mate across the big ocean to our east for when comes out for that stupid run in June

Although a good proportion of Hubbers use Strava, I think it's only a small minority compared to the cyclists out there. If you check a segment in Tokai and see how many results on a segment there are this week, it's very few compared to the people who rode it.

 

e.g. log in and check https://www.strava.com/segments/3272211- as at 20:19 this evening only 6 people have ridden it with Strava on this week.

If you looking for real stats, I know you not going to find the truth here, I know many HUBBERs who swear they not on strava, only to find they under different names, I have a mate who says he hasn't been on STRAAAAVA for ages only to see I have a ghost who follows me when I only ride with him ;)

I also dont use my real name on endomondo, too creepy when peeps can see where you have been riding...

Why is it creepy.....you hiding from someone?

I don't get the creepy part either.  If I ride out in the open and in public.......

Dude, my ex lady's brother told me he caught her checking out my strava profile on his phone this past December. He and I are still big choms(read beer consumers)
