MyFitnessPal, Google Fit, and Strava Question

So, I'm trying to integrate the tools I'm using to help me stay on track better, especially on calorie counting. I've started using Strava to track my bike rides as of this past Friday, and I use Google Fit to track my steps automatically (I have an Android Wear watch, so why not?). Everything syncs to MFP automatically as well, which means I can see where I am in the middle of the day pretty reliably. Very handy to try to contain my desire to eat everything in the kitchen
My problem is that Google Fit is also tracking my bike rides and uploading them to MFP, which means those calories count for double. Right now, this isn't critical, as I'm only getting about 200 calories counted. In a couple months, though, I'm hoping to have that number be much higher.
Does anybody have any experience with this? Is there a way to prevent my bike rides in Strava from being duplicated in Google Fit? I'm also going to ask on Strava, and whatever other support sources I can find, but figured I'd start here and see what people think.
