Do you need a data connection to run Strava?

Nope, just GPS. Even when you don't have a great GPS signal (rarely in the UK) it seems to do a good job of making that bit up. It only needs to connect to the web when you upload your data.

Strava currently has premium for free, you do have to enter card details, but once you've done it go to account and choose to not renew or whatever the option is.

I haven't been on the bikes for a couple of days because of a sore neck so if it's good in the morning I shall have a go on the turbo

I know that one. I was out yesterday and realised after 37KM that I stood a change of beating my fastest 40KM, so I pushed much harder than someone my age really should and beat it...by 2 seconds.

Hey, 2 secs is 2 secs.  It all counts.  Congrats on your new best 40k time
