Yes, another Strava thread!

I see there's a club on there for Boards.ie, would be good to get a few more people listed

Any idea if you can upload .csv files to Strava?

Plastik · 28-09-2011 11:56am

Don't have a conclusive answer for that. If you want to upload a file from your laptop it says file formats supported are .gpx, .tcx and .fit.

Ta. Will have a rummage around the support forums.

stuck with my phone for the foreseeable!

I noticed something on there the other day about the site being both iphone and android compatible if you're rocking one of those OS's.

daragh_ · 28-09-2011 12:27pm

I've got the Strava App on my iPhone but have never used it. Mostly I use MapMyRide and Cyclemeter, with mixed results.

Cyclemeter lets you export your data as a CSV file. I was interested to see how Strava would interpret it, hence my question.

You'll just have to take my word that all my pre-strava spins were awesome, and that my decline in performance since is because I keep stopping to check my phone/have a cold/malicious headwinds/something else which I'll invent later.

The Strava iPhone and Android apps are a bit sh1te. You'll get much better results with a Garmin.

daragh_ · 28-09-2011 3:05pm

I'm using Sports Tracker on a Symbian phone. It has auto uploads to sports-tracker.com but also exports gpx which suits mapmyride and strava etc. They have android and iphone apps too.

Got some GPX files out of Cyclemeter and managed to upload them into Strava.
The ones I exported from MapMyRide crashed and burned halfway through processing.

Still, it's pretty nifty. Today I've had the opportunity to examine in fine detail just how crap I am

I such a nervous descender. I may as well be walking down from the Sally Gap.

Is the club set up as a cycling club, or does it even give that option? They updated it for running recently so I've been loading a lot of runs into it, would be wary of joining the club and having the "Recent Activity" thing be full of me on 8km plods.

Something's messed up with that contest, it tells me I've got 5000m climbing this year but my profile page says I've 12,000m. Hope it just takes a while to update.
