How many GPS art routes are available in London?

30 shapes, including cat silhouette, star, moon, lightning bolt. Each has its own page with a map, elevation profile and GPX download.

Do I need a subscription to download the GPX?

Yes, for the GPX file. Every route page shows its map, climb and kilometre splits for free; the GPX download and the interactive elevation profile are included with a ShapeMiles subscription. The file works with Garmin, Coros, Suunto, Strava and any app that reads GPX, and a subscription also adds turn-by-turn navigation in the app and lets you generate new shapes for any city.

Will the shape actually show up on Strava?

Yes, provided you keep GPS recording running for the whole route. Pausing mid-run leaves a straight line across the drawing, and heavy tree cover or tall buildings can blur corners.
