Strava on the other hand is a worry for privacy. All it takes is someone with a public account not hiding their location, and boom, everyone knows where you live and probably your name as well. Hence why I make my strava request to follow.

You can set it to exclude the first and last sections of your ride so the start and end point are not shown.

Mapmyride does this too.

If you are not blocking leaderboards then someone can just click on your route from there.

Can you? Do tell - I can't see any obvious way to do that...

Just had a look, I may have been mistaken. I must have been thinking of Strava when I gave that a go.

Just to confirm, there are no privacy issues - CC just links whatever text you put into your location to Google Maps.

Cheers,

You can set it so that you become invisible to everyone in your street who might see you depart or return on an expensive bicycle.

I was just wondering where I live. Nowhere, according to google maps.
