We’ve heard someone explain this app is “Like Facebook, but for cyclists” and we couldn’t agree more. Strava features that we love include tracking your rides through GPS, comparing your riding with your friends and checking out the competition from the cyclists you follow (giving you that extra bit of motivation).

The photo sharing option is a great feature, which lets you share images taken on route with your circle of friends who are also using the app. It provides you with useful stats including distance, pace, speed, elevation and calories burned and, allows you to set personal records to help you keep on top of your performance.
