You should record every ride. Set Google maps timeline to record your activities by default. It's private, between you and Google. It's consistent, reliable, accurate, and provides a backup record in case we're unconscious or there's a conflict in reports between witnesses. It confirmed my version of events when I was hit by a car this spring.

Google timeline records can be deleted if desired, but I keep mine intact. The data can be downloaded, but the original record cannot be modified or falsified. That can be handy for legal purposes.

It also reliably estimates mode of travel -- vehicle, bus, bicycle, walking. No need to specify, Google reliably guesstimates based on speed, travel patterns, etc. Very handy.

The Google data isn't directly compatible with Strava, etc., but there are data format conversion tools. I've used them a few times when Strava glitched.

The only downside is Google will pester us to leave reviews on businesses we visit. Those prompts can be disabled. I prefer to allow the recording because I want a log of where I was, since many of my trips this year have been medical appointments related to the injuries from being hit by a car. Occasionally there are changes between my original appointments and my actual dates and times of visits, so it's handy to have an automatic log.
