Does it actually say "No segments for this activity" If it does it would suggest the activity type has changed to run / swim etc.
Nup - segments are all listed but no PRs / 2nds / 3rds are shown anywhere, despite there being numerous actually looking at the numbers in each segment.

Did you put a fair bit more effort in on your ride? I am just back a quick ride and worked extra hard and when I downloaded the ride I noticed there was no segments. It had made it an e-bike ride, possibly as I was a fair bit faster than my normal rides so I had to change it. Don't possess an e-bike! Lol
Having an ebike I would be very surprised if it did that automatically as ebike rides upload as ride from most (all?) apps and have to be manually changed.
 
Slightly off topic, but related.....

A couple of years ago I had one of my rides suspended. I had to go through all sorts of emails with Strava. They had decided, on no evidence that they would give me, that one of my rides had been done in a motor car and so was ineligible for the bike section. No idea why - times etc were no different to other rides.

I had used a Fenix as a trial for a few rides but for some reason one of them caused a glitch.

Strava initially were helpful, but then they asked if I'd recorded it on an iPhone. Nope, because I'm on Android, and had used a Garmin product. Strava immediately lost interest. Their policy seems to be to support Apple products and everything else is rubbish.

Don't know if that helps; I suspect not🤔

Just got back from another fairly intense thrash to find the same issue with Strava showing absolutely no achievements. Did a bit of digging and found this about "refreshing activity achievements".

Tried it and my achievements went from nowt of anything to 2 PRs, 2 seconds and 2 thirds. Checking further however revealed that some segments still weren't registering some PRs.. so I refreshed them again; revealing a total this time of 23 PRs, 14 2nds and 11 3rds :blink:

Likewise doing the same for the ride yesterday that I originally had issues with has taken me from zero achievements to 5 PRs 13 seconds and 7 thirds. On this occasion I was a bit more patient with the banner at the top stating the process may take a while, so think maybe the issue with getting more achievements after refreshing the other ride for a second time was maybe just because it refreshed the page after more achievements had been updated, if this makes sense.

So.. very happy to have solved the issue ad uncovered a lot more PRs than I'd expected; less happy that I had to do it in the first place and that the subscribed version might also be this buggy. Have any paying users had a similar issue with achievements not showing?

Very occasionally and it happened just as often with the old free version. On Sunday I did some segments for the first time, on initial upload it gave my times but I didn't appear on the segment leaderboard at all - my best being --- / 183 or whatever.

I didn't need to do anything, the leaderboard had updated the next time I looked, which was about an hour later.

Plus local legends is only if you make your rides visible to everyone and pay the subscription. No thanks. So not even a local legends out of those using Strava. Just a legend amongst subscribers .

Nope. Not true. Totally false. Fake news.
I dont pay a penny and have a few local legends to my name. All you have to do is ride the same segments repeatedly.

Commuters should be in with a fair crack at gaining a 'local legend' status.

Actually, the local legends is for all users, subscription and free. I don't pay for Strava yet I am seeing daily awards for my riding certain segments as the Local Legend.

Frankly, I could care less if they award me local legend status. That stuff doesn't matter to me. The only person I'm comparing myself to is myself.
So, I only care about my time, mileage, average speed, elevation gain, stuff like that. It matters not what anyone else is doing.
