Strava has just announced new Spotify integration, which will make soundtracking your best mountain bike trails or gravel rides far easier. Riders can now listen to music, audiobooks, and podcasts from Spotify while recording workouts on Strava, with no more switching between the two apps.
If you listen to music while riding, having some of your favorite tunes playing can certainly give you that extra motivation while training or even give you that extra last surge of effort to grab a KOM. It can be seen as a distraction by blocking out audio awareness, but some of the best headphones are now open-ear bone conduction headphones like Oladance Open Ear and Shokz OpenRun Pro and allows you to listen while still being able to hear your surroundings.
