This thing has never worked properly for me.

 

It syncs all activities as steps, so Endomondo just thinks I walk a hell of a lot.

hahaha weird. i used mine to sync endomondo to strava, which worked. so maybe its from strava to endomondo thats not so great.

Had my first commute this morning. First time on a bike in almost two years I think.. And wearing a back pack +/-6kg's. 

 

Needless to say, I was absolutely destroyed. But it was a blast, as bad as it was. Looking forward to my return trip this afternoon already :)

 

Not adding it to the endomondo challenge though. Way too ashamed. :)

For all those wanting to know if you can sync endomondo / strava, I use https://tapiriik.com/ it auto syncs about 10 min after you complete recording on the one app. It was $2 for a year, so pretty cheap.

 

I see there is another app called SyncMyTracks which is R46.

 

As for creating a challenge on strava, I dont think it was possible to say only commute rides or something like that, maybe someone with a premium account can try create a challenge on strava to see if it works?

 

Good luck for all those taking part, may you all have safe journeys :thumbup:

 

I have a premium account with Strava.  I will have a look and report back during the morning.

Thanks to global warming I might be in for a shot to start commuting next week if the weather predictions are to be trusted.  Tuesday is really looking good.  Maybe can add my first 70.

As a premium member you can't create challanges as well.  What is the feeling?  Should we create a club/group for the 2018 commute challange on Strava?

Yes....I personally couldn't be bothered to download/register for yet another app as well as third party app for everything to talk to each other...too much admin IMHO.

 

I log my rides on Strava and note them as commutes when I do commute...

What I've decided to do is export my Strava commute gpx files and import them into Endomondo... doesn't take long...

Yeah...still admin tho.

 

*EDIT - I am lazy when it comes to admin re my rides...as it is I sometimes don't bother with logging my stuff on Strava...I just wanna jump on and ride. If I have to now worry about 2 apps recording or transferring files etc....meh...

 

Surely there must be a way to setup a challenge on Strava?

Ok. Strava group created.

 

https://www.strava.com/clubs/333040/leaderboard

 

Endomondo is the official site for this challange.

 

Strava is a add on until the wake up one day with creating custom challanges.  The advantage of Strava is that we can see on a week to week basis who has logged the most miles and climb the most.  This could spice up the challange.

Ok, nobody else join, I'm winning right now :P
