The Android app attempts to upload the ride as soon as you stop the recording, complains if it can't and then keep retrying until it has a network connection to do it. The question is whether you can start a new recording before it has uploaded the previous one. The easiest way to find out would be just put your phone into 'airplane mode' and see what happens.
I had a go with it in flight mode and it worked. There is no "save" feature as such but clicking finish ride seems to do the same thing so should be able to "save" each day's ride. It does as you suggest try to upload so flight mode should solve that issue until I am in a town with network access.
I know MyTracks will happily record multiple tracks with no network coverage.
Thanks. This is another option. It allows emailing of the track. No direct uploading but.
There are some other GPS logging apps that include support for direct uploads to Strava (e.g.
IpBike) but I don't know how well they cope with a lack of connectivity.
This works but it is $10 and the user interface is well old school
I think the Strava app will do the trick.
Thanks for your suggestions.

I smell a bug...
