STRAVA Local Legends LIVE – UK Info Below

STRAVA local legends are now live and you can see if there are any near you from either the STRAVA app or web platform. Below are the absolutely top-ranked run and bike segments for all regions of the UK.

With Richmond Park only just properly re-opened to cyclists in the UK, I’m not sure that Kingston to Bushy will remain as the most popular bike segment. Handily it’s a mile from where I live 😉 Although the thought of having to do 1km over a busy and bumpy road for 98 times to beat the current leader is a somewhat daunting challenge that I’ll not be taking up.

  1. So where in the app do we see these new stats? I’m not seeing them for the segments I rode today, but maybe I’m looking in the wrong place. I’m in the UK, btw.
