I've created four on the free account. I've been on Strava for about a year and a half and I was frustrated early on by the lack of longer segments so made I one that covered about two thirds of my commute between a couple of logical landmarks. We've moved office since so now I have to go an extra k to finish it!booge wrote:I assume you have to be a premium member to be able to create segments?? I use the free Strava.
Another is a nice little hill that ends in a cul de sac. You have to ride across a park to get too or from it but it gets you off a busy narrow road that connects some of our so-called Sunset Coast Ride paths. I'm KOM on that one, bit of a hollow victory though as only four people have ridden it in it's history.

I tend to limit my segment to sections of road/track that don't have stop signs or traffic lights. If you create a segment that contains lights then someone could flag it as being dangerous with the justification that it encourages riders to run yellow/red lights in order to get a better time. The one exception to this is private segments - I have created two of these for my commute in and out, so I can keep track of my progress with the "My results" section in the segment view.

Strava has been getting more popular here and some very strong riders are claiming all the biggies now ... That's the problem living in an area lots of young pros like coming to live in .

Hold 45 KOM and keep getting rides flagged for taking them from other riders particularly from a couple in the area I live in ..... They taking all the fun away from it .... Looks like I'll be switching back to my garmin connect and training peaks
