Hi,

Isn't it time you had a 'Strava Pro' page or category? Let the amateurs have their app back.

Hello @Bigstu65200 

Thanks for posting about this.  Could you elaborate and give more details on what you were thinking?  Are you suggesting that Pros or expert Athletes not be allowed to compete on general segment leaderboards?

Hi Jane,

 
Well considering Strava was really for amateurs from the beginning, I think if pro riders are going to use it or allowed to use it, then why not have their own section? Just call it Strava Pro.
 
They are not really competing for segments because their stats from World Tour races are included. It's hardly fair on amateur riders because the roads are not closed when these times are recorded.
 
It's nice to see where you sit in the real world but Pro's and ex Pro's should compete with themselves.
You wouldn't be happy if your local boxing club allowed Tyson Fury to enter the local club Champs ever year would you? 
 
Kind regards 
 
😊
Stuart
