Any discussion for cycle rides is incomplete without mentioning the Strava App
Now that you are into cycling, its really difficult to ignore the Strava app. It is essentially a social network for cycling and running. You can monitor your progress, set targets, train with friends and much more.
Getting Started
Like any social media app, you can sign-up using email, Facebook or Google account. The apps are available for both Android and iOS platforms. You can connect your smart tracking devices like Garmin with your account for uploading rides info directly.
How to make the most out of it?
You can upload your rides info manually or can track live stats on the mobile applications. Strava offers automatic pause and start option to give you realistic information about your ride. You can get creative by adding your own routes and upload photos along the way. This like any other social media platform is a surest way to gain followers.
You can follow other riders and keep track of their rides and progress. The real fun starts when you set targets for yourself and friends. There is nothing like rides with your friends. So what you are you waiting for? Download the app and get going.
