Yeah, for me it's definitely about those messages saying I've gotten a
PR on certain segment. I doubt I'll ever be fast enough to get to the top of any leaderboard (save the KOM I got because I figured out that I could pick up a lot of speed going down a hill on a little trafficked road that you can then take a left turn into the start of a segment if it's safe), but when it tells me I'm getting faster, I like that.
