Like if someone hits a personal milestone or a century ride and wants to share?
Personally, I don’t really mind as long as it’s accompanied by either some context and an interesting story, or a photo of the bike (or preferably even both!)
I don’t mind at all, but I would like some context to go along with the post :)
Like how long it took to reach the milestone, or if there are any experiences/tips to share with the rest of us.
I don’t do trackerware social apps any more. I haven’t checked in many years but I held at least a half dozen major KOMs at one point. I kinda got turned off to strava after seeing what it did to mountain biking. Like road stuff can usually be pretty safe for most people, but when someone is going all out on mountain with no sense of responsibility, people get hurt, especially hikers and new riders. I saw a lot of that and didn’t care for it.

KOMs are “King Of (the) Mountain,” it is a fake internet points award for anyone recording the fastest time through a segment of a trail or path. Users create the segments using the data from their ride. Then Strava shows all the other riders that have traveled through this segment and their times. This incentivizes riders to get the best times on the most popular segments they ride through that also feature a lot of other riders with competitive times.
Not a fan but i will probably look at the post to see what that ride was about.
I don’t, I just tune that noise out. If someone wants to share a ride with me, they can come over and hang out while talking about it.
I think “cool”
👍
Knowing how much effort and dedication it takes to meet your goals, congrats are always in order, no matter how small the achievement.
