Strava Local Legend - Holidays Cancelled

Yep, I’m declaring a holiday ban just to keep that little golden laurel wreath symbol on my profile! I'm not going to let those hard earned tokens be taken away through lack of cycling the same route every time I go out.
TL;DR
The things one does to maintain “local legend” status.
Strava Local Legend
The Strava local legend icon symbolises something significant—it's not just about the miles; it’s about community, dedication, and cycling the same route religiously - however boring it might get. Gaining that recognition means you have cycled that particular piece of tarmac the most times in the last 90 days - effectively a digital superstar. And I have got 2!
Why Holidays Are Off the Table
You might be wondering why. Imagine this: You're all set to bask in the sun, sun cream on, toes in the pool, ice-cold drink in hand...
...and then ding! Your phone notifies you that someone has overtaken your segment on Strava.
How am I expected to relax with that looming over my head?
Happy Travels!
