I've just started Strava as well.
Does anyone want the Follow for Follow?
Thanks for the info to I wondered how segmentation worked on Strava. A fantastic website (I've only just been told about)for GPS tracking.
You were correct my segment did appear after about 4 days also 5 more people had made the same segment.
As long as you havnt made it private it should appear eventually (can take time) however they tend to give priority to popular segments with a lot of competitors so maybe your segment is too specific? when creating a segment dont just pick where you started/ended, consider what points may be specific to the ride you did and maybe adjust your segment a little.
Around me there are a bunch of segments which end just after the turing on a junction, so if you go the other way your ride wont be included in the segment. If youve created a segment and no-one else has done it (give it a few days for strava to update with other riders details) then maybe it shouldnt be considered a segment?
