I usually come in as 734th out of 804 riders, so don't expect major victories on the Strava front. But every so often I beat my own time, which is sort of fun.
What I do like about it is knowing more or less how many km I have ridden this year, minus the rides when I left the Garmin at home, of course.

Oh gosh I love Strava. I basically don't have any QOMs on segments anyone else has ever ridden, but I enjoy the 'carrot' of chasing whatever woman is ahead of me on hills in our neighborhood. Just yesterday I PRed on a hill in my neighborhood, because I had a goal time of the Strava person in front of me. Now, I'm gearing for the next lady. I can see how someone might get too competitive with it but I accept that I will never be the strongest rider out there and just have fun
I'm also sometimes motivated to get out there solely because people will see my miles on Strava.
And yes, I would join a TE Strava group. I don't follow many female cyclists.
