Just a few words of advice based on feedback from other phone users.
Firstly battery in the phone generally won't last you for a long ride.
Secondly you'll need a decent case and mount to see any data otherwise it'll be in your back pocket.
Thirdly if you ever look at getting any additional sensors like cadence or heart rate then you'll have to get Bluetooth ones as most phones don't support Ant+ which limits your choice.
Fourthly, the GPS sampling rate in a phone isn't usually as frequent as a dedicated device and so your trace can appear choppy.Finally, it's just not as aero! ;)

Stephen, thanks for taking the time to give feedback and advice. All good points well made. I didn't know about the GPS sampling rate, but don't think it'll matter too much about the aero at the speeds I do! :D

SOLD to the man with the bike!
Having finally decided to purchase one of the last few Garmin Edge 810's from Aldi I found out I'm getting a new iPhone for work. I've looked into it and I'm happy with the route and Nav feature with the Strava app, so struggling to justify my Garmin purchase! I thought I would give club members first refusal, before taking it back to Aldi for a refund. It's brand new unused in original retail packaging etc. and I paid £179.99 for it.
