you can use the mapmyride app and export the gpx files then upload them to strava as well if you must , or just use the strava app

i use the mapmyride android app.

next week going to try a 50 miler.... EEK

Just try and plan it sensibly. Try a circular route so that if anything does happen it's easy for you to bail out and cut directly home. If possible make the second half easier than the first. You'll be fine.

I've registered and joined group, may as well just use Strava instead of mapmyride, or are there benefits for using both?

This should be my ride, about to do it in reverse - home!

Couple of minutes slower actually (got stuck at 2 sets of traffic lights!)

Journey in today I felt I was travelling faster (& no headwind), yet Strava said I took longer?!
