self-tracking and cycling practices)

ride and finishing a ride
3. Go Pro footage of ride
4. Interview 2 (talk to participant about the Go
Pro footage and the self-tracked data they
collected on their ride)
16. Preliminary findings
Self-tracked data
offer objective measures over subjective embodied
sensations
documented proof that a ride took place and how
long and fast it was
can monitor changes in fitness over time
can be social
can tell you if you are struggling or feeling good
need to be assessed against previous experiences
17. Preliminary findings
Self-tracked data
can be motivating external validation
knowing speed makes me work harder
distance travelled gives a sense of achievement
seeing heart rate tells me how much work Im doing
can only tell you so much about a ride (cant access
the internal battles or incorporate traffic or weather
conditions or impact of different bikes)
18. Preliminary findings
Self-tracked data
value of data can mean less caution about data
privacy
makes you more aware of parts of the ride (e.g. Strava
segments)
assists riding technique (noticing speed, anticipating
gear changes)
can change the way you feel about your body
helps explain why you felt a certain way about a ride
reminds you of how you felt during the ride
