I think I just miss 'old school' forums like this one. Sadly most people dont have the time (sorry - can't be arsed to make the time) to post like this - preferring the quick hit/fix of social media. 
I really don't like the format of Facebook where the gobshites have centre stage. They are the ones that used to get told to shut up or you are banned in the good old days. Now they shout, add endless selfies and think they rule Facebook. It's Jeremy Kyle online. 

....... Yes, I think I need a hug.  Wink Ha ha Big Grin

Facebook has its uses, but agree its become over the top. I look at it most days but rarely post, unless its Batty related :-)

Thats the big problem with Strava now Dave. It's got much worse this year. I recently lost six KOMs in two weeks. One recorded 69.7mph to take one KOM! All were flagged and re-instated, but it's wrong that you have to do that. The w@nkers taking the KOMs know they shouldn't have them, but do nothing. Cnuts. I have a few more that are suspect but I just can't be arsed with it. You shouldn't have to Police it like this. 

Anyway - I've found it quite liberating just going out and riding without giving Strava or segments a second thought. I needed to change something as I was starting to get a bit bored and this has made a difference for me. I'm still recording activities but just so I keep an eye on basic data for training.
