Oh, it was strava'd! The meaningless part is the fact that only 18 other people had completed the segment, but I'm going to choose not to tell people that.

To be completely serious about all of this...I started using Strava over several other apps when I first got into cycling because I wasn't ready to invest in a real computer. Strava is one of the best free cylcing apps out there, hands down. When I finally got my garmin, it just made sense to keep using it.

Not to step on toes here, but encryptions are cracked so digital media can be shared on the internet for free. The whole "playing with linux" bs is for credibility in court cases. There hasn't been a DVD, HD-DVD, or BluRay that hasn't been cracked and posted on the internet for free.
