Hey!!! Appreciate you checking out my virtual cycling channel where I ride and also focus on commentary for virtual cycling racers! Thanks and much appreciated 🙏🏻👍🚴😊

Great chat guys been subscribed to both of you for years. I just bought the Enduro 3, amazing watch. Upgrade from an Instinct 2X, which I loved. I'm really not use to the speed the Enduro 3 saves runs though after using a 2X for so long. Concerning the MIP display, it's fine in the UK as we rarely get sun! Big improvement over the Fenix 6 solar, which I had a few years back.

I’m coming from an Apple Watch Ultra, I Recently bought a Enduro 3 from Amazon. I hope I won’t regret this purchase for fitness monitoring, since my last experience with Garmin App was a little bit crappy. Any thoughts out there?

I just want a Strava basic subscription option. - Track my rides - Show how it compares to other rides (segment analysis) That's it. I don't care about anything else. Canceled my subscription a year ago, the price is unjustified as I get no value from other features. For routing, Trailforks is my best friend for mountain biking, and AllTrails for hiking. Haven't found Strava's routing to be useful, as I mostly use it for mountain biking. Will start to experiment ride recording with TrailForks and MTB Project, since free Strava just a ride log for me now anyways.

Agree with uselessness of Strava's new quick edit feature.

I really like the format. I always put a lot of weight on Des reviews. If there was a race between all the youtubers, Des probably will win by a few minutes.

For me Strava keeps getting pay to play only. And it’s just no longer worth the price.

All I want is to be able to add two or more shoes to a run!!! Wouldn’t thought it was hard. And the AI is dangerous.

I have a bit of a backlog of podcasts and I just listened to this now and wondered why API Gate wasn't mentioned 😂

only things i like are social, newish chat, and what made me want to pay a few bucks a month was extra route stats but price and emtb and cheaters ruined that desire. i now deleted my account due to privacy data changes and just the way they do business.

These sorts of issues in a general sense point to a new C-suite team whose "optimizations" and ever present team "reorgs" have finally started to bubble up and impact customers directly. Things mentioned like outsourcing "PR" (? -sounds more like "support" from the example given.) From a technical standpoint I can't help thinking the changes (read-only hub, but especially the just-announced API feed restrictions to TPAs) indicate a new focus on nickel and dime-ing data hosting and transit costs. I'm in the process of backing up my fit and gpx files outside of Strava in anticipation of a platform change.

google maps starting doing BS like this years ago for no reason. Trying to be too smart

shorts day?

Exactly what I was looking for, thanks. Fenix 7XSS user, and this really helped me determine if upgrading made sense.

Just don't use it. You don't need to tell everybody where and when you ride. Just hop on your bike and do your thing.

Excellent interview. Thank You Mr Min. And I love the white. I have several bikes and with each new acquisition, I have wanted it in white but the model/trim level I decide on has never been available in that color. So in a way, I now have my white bike.

My biggest complaint if my older remix watches was the volume of the alarm and vibration were so weak. I use my Apple Watch alarms all the time.

when you have problem connection road in the route planer just set it to manual mode when you do that part of the road

I've used Komoot for ages and their planner is far superior to Strava in every regard. The only edge Strava has is their heatmap which can help you avoid a path that is supposed to be good based on OSM data but it actually isn't and people are avoiding it. But that's not a route planner feature, that's just the data that Strava has accumulated during the years and that's, frankly, keeping them afloat right now I think...

1100 usd and has a soft speaker 😢. Im waiting for the fenix 8 pro to fix that

greate viedo ~~Please give some advise on choose pace pro , race s or m3 for running and whole day wearing . I have own vertix 2 ,but i think it is too heavy for running . i want o buy one onwatch on runnng . When i hiking using vertix 2 THX ~

With Insta360 also based in China, why would they not be subject to similar product bans as DJI?

Just got the enduro 3 (my first garmin)

Routes: I’ve planned most of my routes with Komoot for 3 years now. But good to know that I shouldn’t be going back to the odd one to be created on Strave Forum: the value of the ‘hub’ was limited anyway. These Strava people argued points you’ve made, changed the titles, etc and very few suggestions have actually been implemented. Links: So so stupid of them to disallow links. AI: turned it off two days after they implemented it - don’t need that crap Forced edit of rides: I always edit my ride titles but now I click the prompt away first and do it the normal way.

This is the corniest thumbnail I've seen in a while.

Do you think the Edge 1050 will have Black Friday sales?

rwgps forever

Serves them right for destroying FatMap.

Strava streva. Norwegian for Strava struggling

Hey, I Got the Marq gen 2 athlete a few weeks ago as a gift. And based on what I see I would swap it right away for the Coros Pace Pro without a blink of an eye. I really don't get the fuss about the garmin epix gen 2 interface where this is actually a variant on. Ok yes the screen is nice I give them that. BUT! the heartrate is not any better then my vertix 2 watch which was very clear on a lactate measurement. The screen is smaller so not really handy when you are on a trail and have to look for small side trails on the go. And then I don't get what Garmin does wrong with the Wifi and bluetooth but forget about the frequency on heartrate measurement during the day which should gain a lot of battery life on Coros as you claim. Don't turn of your wifi and or bluethooth and the battery is death in a few days. Why is that and more impotantly why is it not the case on a Coros? Not saying that the coros is better overall because that would not be true but it's the same function here why does it drain the battery so much on a Garmin? One more frustration is the terrible menu sections on Garmin these days, wanted to change the data during an activity and it's rather facinating how good you can hide a simple function like that. Same for Spotify, yes you can install it but it just doesn't work at all so you might aswell just keep your phone with you so you can at least still take a picture on the go.

So true about the ecosystem.. I just switched from GoPro to DJI.. love the switch. For me the workflow is so much faster.. and as much as I have loved GoPro for years, I use the action camera everyday.. and the reality is that 6months of the year I am usually plogging in the dark.

Please bring back Fatmap or the features back in strava! Its killing backcountry skiers not to have this!

the only reason to keep Strava by the way - except "community" - is device agnosticism. it just makes device/vendor lock-in much less of a problem with GPS watches. you are not stuck with your Garmin/Suunto/Polar app, you can switch your watch brand much more easily thanks to Strava, because your training history will still be in one place

komoot is so much better for routing than strava. creating a route on strava has been useless, I tried a couple of times and just gave up.

Do you think any of these will get discounts for black friday?

Thanks to both of you. Always very informative. I just purchased an 'Enduro 3' to replace my battery ‘draining’ Fenix 6. Would you be willing and in a postion to assist? My ‘Enduro 3’ does not easily sync via my Wi-Fi connection. Several tries are required and once it does, I receive the message ‘Transfer Complete, 12 Files Failed’. This is in stark contrast to my ‘Fenix 6’ which synced whilst I was still approaching my apartment way down in the stairwell. Also, I would like to disable ‘Sleep Mode’ completely, rather than having to push a button combination to do so. The watch is a bit of a disappointment in these regards and I am contemplating my options, including returning to a 'Fenix 6’. Thanking you in advance.

You have to make a review of Huawei GT5. I think it's a very solid watch.

In the UK - Epix Gen 2 starts at £325, while the Pace Pro costs £349

Hang on.. we have wind here in the Netherlands?!!

Make open source Plattform with better segment Analysis than strava Call it lisport (libertysports)

Any Suunto Ocean news?

ForeRunner will have the Flashlight for the x75 generation

Halfway through (and applied to join the club lol) but ".km" is apparently a valid TLD (of Comoros)

Ray - any update on the Wahoo KICKR RUN treadmill full review?

Fenix 8 vs marq athlete gen 2 when it comes to features?

At this point, I don't trust most KZbin reviews, except from a select few from established reviewers I have been watching for years. Most of them are paid, or at very least, just a quick glimpse of some hot new product they are hoping to cash in on.

The other thing that TrainingPeaks has that George could use to improve TP Virtual is decades of athlete data. I imagine a world in which that historical data informs performance verification in the game. For example that would include every ride I've done in Zwift, and some of my other training data going back to 2004. Hopefully TP Virtual won't end up towed behind a cargo ship.

I enjoy these podcasts

Please compare and contrast TP and TrainerRoad. Full disclosure, I have a TR subscription. I have used IndieVelo a couple of times and found it interesting. Do you know of any cycling apps where the FIT file can be uploaded for a virtual ride? I tried it on RGT before Wahoo bought RGT and shut it down.
