I'm a fan of the free site, just wondering if the paid version really offers much benefit over the free version? I ride road mostly w HRM but no power meter.
Given they are a small company with a great free product, should i pay for the premium version as a gesture of good will? Its not that much i guess.
Anyway, views or thoughts please.
Thanks
No, the extra you get isn't worth paying for, unless you have a power meter, maybe.
If you want to support them , then that would be a good reason to pay I suppose.
Double post
although they have now added route planning, so if that is important to you?
You can also compare your times in a segment to
See how you improve.
I haven't paid yet, waiting for garmin and HRM.
Try it for a month.
They have shut down all the sites that used to allow a strava ride to be imported and converted to Tcx/gpx, it seems the only way to now do this is by being a premium member.

That's free (well it is for me).
Route planning and Gpx import/export is free with RideWithGPS, all premium offered was a few more filters and a suffer score to tell me how hard I'd just ridden. Like I didn't know.
I spend the 4 extra dollars on TrainerRoad, it's not Strava but has proven a far more useful resource.
I paid the premium as so i can directly download other peaples gpx routes
Strava 'Heatmap' (not quite as good as the disabled Multiple Ride Mapper) is also being moved to Premium 🙁 I shouldn't complain as the free Strava is excellent, but taking away stuff is a bit off.
Nope - nuff said!
Pay for strava! Why not pay to put the trails right its spoilt?

I've never seen Strava out on the trails...
No, but i did for a few months, just seemed reasonable to contribute to something I use a lot.
Probably not "worth" it. But I use strava a lot and went premium just to support it.
I got p1ssed one night and pressed the button. Not regretted it though. I like the additional info on HR which is useful to have alongside the ride. Suffer score seems a bit random. Will probably keep it.
