To use Strava in order to measure
something in order to:
1) Capture data in an effort to feed your analytics addiction
2) Impress/shame other athletes based on on you data
3) Feed your ego (typically has
the reverse effect due to your ride data)
4)
All of the above
- It was too cold outside to
ride my bike, but since I'm addicted to data collection and analytics, I considered Stravaing my indoor ride to ensure I had a complete training record.
- A
high profile cyclist had recently started following me on Strava, so I felt compelled to start Stravaing my indoor rides to prove I am a worthy cyclist.
- Due to the "ride data or it
didn't happen" principle, Stravaing your indoor rides is mandatory.
