Quite a few phones support it (or strava can be used on quite a few phones) or if you have tcx/gpx/fit file you can upload these.
Good pace.

Long lead, loop over seat post, away you go. I presume you will be able to keep up with the dogs, you never know you might get a dog aided KOM

I thought I replied and it seems to have disappeared.

Yeah it works fine usually m8, I use the wifi in the flat or work to upload. Keeps trying to upload but fail message everytime. Strava is fine because I have checked my mad ride down the hill this morning on my MTB. Managed 35.2 mph which was fun.
I think it might be buggered as I used a cycle route for about 3 or 4 miles because roads were jam packed and the exhaust fumes were irritating my throat.

My goal of 500 miles seems a bit better planned this month, only 33 miles to go (last month I had over 50 still to find on the last day). I thought I'd smash this target, but it was harder than I thought, I was ill for a week, so only manged my commutes that week, but other than that it's all gone to plan, at least as much to plan as an Andrew can 
Mega pleased with my KOM today as I topped the table by a sizable lead 
I'm sure I once said I'm not a competitive person...I may have to revise that...

Well done, 500 miles is brilliant, Strava bug hits us all eventually, we hold Strava Anonymous meetings every Tuesday night, you are welcome to come and join in.

If its like endomondo (never used strava on the phone it wouldn't run it), when you have finished it will try to upload via your wifi, if your phone is set up shouldn't be a problem, just load the app, details to you strava account ( I presume) I always found using endomondo better for the reason you can download tcx files, which can hold more information about the ride, but if its just to record the ride and times, strava is fine.Cheers,thats made my day mate

Well done Andy, I passed 500 miles this month today, 4,000 since I started in June, the other day, and finally my speed seems to be increasing (dont want to say to much about that, I usually go back down under 14mph avg), it's just I did it on an avg 1% grade for half the distance (obviously the other half is -1%) it's not the first time (14.01mph 25.3miles 55.45ft per mile) today 14.36mph over 27.4 miles 53.05ft per mile, the other ride was marginally more difficult @ 65.92 today 64.53 (these figures are / by 100 to make a usufull figure),My goal of 500 miles seems a bit better planned this month, only 33 miles to go (last month I had over 50 still to find on the last day). I thought I'd smash this target, but it was harder than I thought, I was ill for a week, so only manged my commutes that week, but other than that it's all gone to plan, at least as much to plan as an Andrew can
Also having had a visit from the fairy, I still managed to 82% of the time I was out, about 15 mins to change the tube and check the tyre.
