Strava says it is the first integration of its kind.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you like mashing the pedals to King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard or riding into a trance while vibing out to Enya, Strava says the new feature enables riders to \u201ctap into the motivation that gets them moving\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>It will be of most interest to cyclists who record rides directly on their phone using the Strava app, whether that\u2019s via a <a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.bikeradar.com\/advice\/buyers-guides\/best-bike-phone-holder\/&quot;\">smartphone mounted to the handlebar<\/a> or during an <a
