It's funny you say this. I'm actually sitting 4th on our local MUP It was stupid of me to even make an attempt that segment, but testosterone got the better of me that day.

For a cyclist, this is the only reason not to use Strava. It promotes competition, which can induce some stupidity.

If that is not an issue or you are strong enough to resist the temptation, then there are no real downsides.

It is better than the rest of the options out there.
