I understand the perspective... the BikeSnobNYC says No Strava

tragic
I am not going to shrug it off and say accidents happen
but there are far more car on pedestrian accidents than bike on pedestrian accidents
there has to be a messed up reality of statistics
the overlap of various users of the shared space
there has to be a measurable expectation of accident\injury\death

people need to get inspiration where they can
friends riding fast along side of friends
that is inspiring
only friends work and ride on different schedules
Stava and the comparisons of the segments is like riding with those people
