MapMyRide / Strava

Anyone use this?

I've just signed up recently and it looks pretty good. You can map all your rides and compare with friends.

Anybody who wants me at the bottom of their leader board send me a PM and I'll add you to my friends list.

I only bike occasionally at the moment. Once I get my new bike sorted that should change though.

I use strava, did give mapmyride a go but just prefer the way strava presents the info it records.

Strava for me.


Leccy, if you don't want any potential thieves knowing where you live, you can set a privacy zone from the user settings

As a matter of interest, when you log your ride what do you put in for the type of bike?

On Strava you don't need to put the type of bike. You can add details of your personal weight and the weight of the bike if you so desire.

I had a couple of my rides flagged, so now just use the private feature so the rides aren't logged as part of the public profile.

I'm only interested in keeping a track of my own rides, or ,more specifically the route and mileage.

I've created myself on Strava and created a privacy zone.

I like the idea of setting targets and working towards these but this seems to be a chargeable feature. Do you guys pay for the premium option or just use the free version.

I use GB and Parks, much the same sort of set up. My leisure riding is mostly off road and this app is O/S map based. Costs a few quid for some of the maps.

Brilliant, found places and routes I didn't know existed.

The reason I asked is that it gives info about calories used but as that is dependant on how much pedalling versus motor you use it's pretty much meaningless. So you're right, it doesn't matter about which bike class you enter.

I'm also only interested in where I've been and how far and I'd been using Google maps to manually plot it before I got Mapmyride.
