does anybody use wahoo kickr with strava segments?

Honestly it's a mixed bag. I do have the app. Used it about 4 times, BUT because I'm trapped inside currently with a broken elbow I'm using it more.

I think the main limitation is you can't decide to do multiple segments. It's just one at a time. Which is ok if you have a long one you want to do, but those can be hard to find.

I had to go to Strava's website to find the segment code for a 24km triathlon course, as it wouldn't sppear on the search in the app.

It's a VERY powerful app. It's the best non- video app I hsve, esp as it doesn't need a subscription. BUT for the price, there are a few limitations that are SUPREMELY annoying.

If you compare it to TrainingPeaks, and a number of other subscription things that are amazing, but overkill, for someone like me who uses it once a week.

I suppose the only issue is price. I think the main way I use it, is the run routes I KNOW and cycle when it's not winter. I've tried Kinomap, etc, and if I'm honest Strava/wahoo hits the spot just right for me. If it was even £10 I'd give it 4-5 star, but the current price has to drop it to a max of 3.

I'll have a bigger review, and how I've used it as rehab following my crash on www.titaniumgeek.com in a few days

I got the app for $10 and I still think it's was a waste of money. Very unimpressed.

I think it's awesome. I have done the lake placid loop (56miles) every weekend this winter. Going to do rev 3 quassy half this Sunday. The segments are there you just need to find them or upload your own.

I am interested in this app, it seems like it would be pretty cool, I don't have the wahoo kickr... yet. This app would be the main one that I train with, until Zwift opens up to the masses.

If you only do one segment at a time - how do you record the workout?

I could easily setup a 30 min warmup segment based off of local roads. Then my main workout would be any multitude of actual race courses or climbs from literally anywhere. It seems awesome. My only concern is how it is all recorded - I guess I would just record using my Garmin and review the data from there.

Thanks!

DC rainmaker has a great review of this app

I can't seem to edit my last post. Finished my quick review

Basically it's fun. It's not TrainerRoad level training, but most importantly DOES allow indoor training of a route before a real world race. Which is really useful if the race is the other side of the UK!
