    Nice! It's very cool. Everytime run or ride I use it. Been busy last 3 weeks with wedding and honeymoon but no excuses anymore. I'll be starting up again soon.

    Used it today, really cool app. However, do you ever have issues with say listening to Pandora and starva either seems like it stops or shuts off?

    After I came home, I looked at the app and it was shut off.. and I was like ahhh WTF! But than I opened it again and it was all good. I did go close to my old work and it picked up the wifi signal, but I didn't enter the password. I think that's what messed it up..

    Never used it with Pandora. I just listen to my own music. I haven't had any problems other than sometimes It doesn't update right away... Pretty cool APP. Fun to try and beat your friends or people in your area. Makes it a little more fun and competitive and makes you push a little harder.

    I upload my rides to it and like to look at how I did on various segments. But, that's about the extent of it.

    I use it to basically keep in touch with a friend of mine in another state. I've also used it find trails in other cities, which has been very helpful.

    Yeah, I like to see how I improve on runs and rides. I like to keep track of my stats and see where I was slow or fast and especially on longer runs or rides determine where I'm weak.
    It's fun to go out and segment hunt and try to beat your buddies too

    I use strava on xc and road rides. I hate how the KOM on some segments are like twice as fast. Crazy dopers with internal motors.

    It's fun for downhilling also. Watch progression over the season as I get is less fat shape.

    I have strava, its a great motivating tool but I hate it. hahaha. I try to get top 10 all the time now, but it takes away from enjoying the actual ride and company.
