    I've just looked and you can set seperate privacy levels for the map and the rest of the ride data. So everyone can see that I rode 10 miles on whichever day, but only friends (or maybe just me) can see the map of the route.

    This.

    I have mine set so only my "friends" can see my maps, everyone else just sees distance, time, speed etc.
    IIRC I think you can even set it so that you are completely blocked from public viewing, and only your friends can see any of your data.

    Yep, that's right. You can choose between "everyone", "friends" and "only me" for the map and the data seperately. Like most things, if you're sensible it'll be fine.

    Eh figured i'd go ahead and join. I need the motivation somehow!

    Although I know I won't do too well since I don't commute or anything.

    I've signed up, there's obviously got to be a metric to measure by, but it strikes me time may be better, otherwise faster riders who do more on the road are more likely to win.

    I just found out the farmer wants me to drive as it makes me more flexible and is happy to pay my petrol this easter, so I doubt I'm going to get many miles in now.

    Oh well, I'll sign up anyway.

    Ah I wasn't sure if it only worked if you were on the move, never used Endomondo, and had heard it was a GPS application?
    It is, he's pulling your leg.


    Why on god's earth would you use Endomondo for gardening? How big is the garden? :shock:

    Someone might have had their Endomondo app workinig whilst they were working on the allotment at the weekend. :wink:

    TBH, after an hour and a half of chopping down trees and clearing away brambles, I'd only 'walked' less than a mile. Would have been less of a workout if I'd ridden for that long.

    I walked the dog a couple of times over the weekend as well, but the GPS receiver on my phone keeps cutting out. Think I'll stick to the Garmin on my bike.

    'twas merely an observation! I do most of my riding on the road, so it suits me anyway :-)

    but some times it is good to know that they need to be forgotten.

    That might be me, I dunno. I saw a link to add my facebook friends to Endomondo, but all it gave me was an option to invite people from Facebook to join Endomondo. I got very confused. :lol:

    I don't have the option for scuba diving on my endomondo!

    I think I might do some fitness walking tomorrow though.
