So now the only annual number I have is not really comparable to my efforts in previous years.
I use Strava as a backup. You can edit your workout/ride title. I always edit mine to include "xx.xx mi Road Cycling". You could edit yours to include indoor or outdoor. There is also a pulldown to change the type of ride, and tags for commute or indoor. Mapmyride will give you a choice to include "all activities" or you can filter which type is included in the total. I don't know if Strava has that option.
I use Mapmyride as my primary data keeper. I don't use a phone app for either one though. I use a Wahoo Elemnt Bolt GPS computer that I move to any of my bikes. After the ride, it uploads the data to the Elemnt app on my phone. Then from there, it uploads to Strava and Mapmyride automatically via wi-fi whenever I get back home. You can chose to upload the data to a vast number of data keeping sites. Very cool.
