I don't have big $$$ bikes, but I don't post all the details about my bikes - some users like to 'brag' about their awesome bikes (read big $$$), letting a thief know that there's something really good to steal.
Lastly, users can make their Strava account private and use it as a person riding log.
I guess I'm not too worried about someone from Brazil traveling here to steal my cheap hybrid from my house or the Walmart BSO mountain bike in my shed.
