I read he was found by a helicopter? I mean did nobody have the idea to first check the point where everyone expected him to be anyway?
I do not expect, that police knew that and even his wife ... . It is really not probable. Cyclists (runners) knows what strava is, but I would not bet that police will know and even of they will know, that they will know, that he uploaded last ride.
Interesting if I remember correctly, you can pay some fee and then your ride is available online live. Seems to be reasonable to pay ... .
There's various ways. Strava Beacon, Garmin Crash Detection, Various Phone Apps etc sms a contact. His ride was uploaded at 9:52am though, so uploaded mid-ride it seems, so he might have had the thought to stop the ride to see what koms he got while waiting for the helicopter : )
