im pretty sure most of you guys with fast bikes like me want to compete other bikers, and the Strava app looks like a great idea to compare results,
but going in to strava with my 60mph ebike feels like cheating, feels like im ruining the game for other players (who use pedal bikes)
is there any app like this that would fit our genre of bicycles? maybe something for motorcycles?
i just wanna race someone and have no competitors!! im pretty sure there are lots of guys like me around the world
i would love to see a drag-strip app that tests your speed for 1 mile or whatever with just GPS tracking and compares it to other people around the world
this way you dont even need to take the same course, just find a straight road
 
If you look deeper into the Strava menus you will find a setting for ebike. It is not as detailed a system as the p-bike Strava, but it is there......

You could also use the regular Strava, but login with an obviously ebiker name like Volt Watthour or Edison Ampere so that the p-bikers won't get all butt-hurt when you are KoM.

As far as the drag race app to compare ebikes, doesn't Snapchat have a feature where they show your speed over the picture from the camera? I recall something about some teenaged girl running into someone while using it at 106mph...... :shock:
 
Its an old thread but I have same question really.
I've hunted through the menus on Strava and can see that a ride can be changed to an e-bike ride but cannot see how to default future uploads (from Cyclemeter) to e-bike rides. You can set up your equipment but I can't see how you can set it to an e-bike - there is only a moutain bike, road bike, BMX type options. You can also set your default activity but not to e-bike ride :-(
I have set up my own segments and it is nice to know how I went over each segment compared to my previous rides.... there are very few other ebike riders to compete with .. . that would be great fun!!

Would be good to know if anyone has figured this out!
