I see Strava has a Beacon function that seems to allow this, but you need to be a subscribing member (I.e. it costs money). I was looking for something that might be usable for our next bike bus outing, to allow parents to track where the group is along our route, so ideally would want something that’s easy to use, doesn’t need lots of registration/ sign in etc.</p> <p>Has anyone come across something suitable? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=16963#post-232333 Wed, 28 Sep 2016 16:29:53 +0000 Klaxon 232333@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>So I've signed up to the premium free trial to give one of the Strava training thingies a shot in October.</p> <p>My motivation is to actually get some decent ski legs and lungs on me before January.</p> <p>It begins Monday and having given the plan a once over, I think it would achieve <em>any</em> short term cycling goal for a beginner due to the increase in hours on the saddle.</p> <p>It's definitely structured around somebody who works regular Mon-Fri office hours which isn't me so I'll have to swap around a couple of days to keep post-work training to reasonable levels.</p> <p>I shall use this thread to report back as I go and to prevent cheating. GL me :) </p>
