One of the most covered topics this week in sports-tech news - Strava rolling out changes to their free and subscriber services. There was a lot of creative media headlines around the changes. It took FOUR DAYS for the announced changes to roll-out at which time I spent a number of hours getting hands-on with what really had changed for the 'Free Strava' experience.
