I just don't quite mesh with it though so I'm not going to fault you no matter what you choose.
What do you not like about Strava? I used Endomondo in the past and thing Strava gives me similar features in that I can chose my activity other than cycling to get results when I kayak or xc ski. Is there another app that can be used to get an 'accurate' input from other sports? I have a month trial of Strava to see if it is good for me or not.

Thanks for the list of apps, I will look into all of those. I do have a friend I ride with in the past, she is 60 and I sometimes struggle to keep up, hopefully with some offseason training I may do better. this summer. I think the local club will be way too hard-core for me for at least a year, riding season is only 6 months here if we are lucky, so I will give Zwift a shot.
