So, in my quest to describe my rides to friends and family members in different states, I've became caught up in terminology. How do you quantify how hilly a ride was, or how much effort was given during a ride? I've recently been using strava, and I like it a lot. I don't have a premium account, so I can't use the suffer score, nor do I have a computer. I use the strava app, so I can see splits, climbs, segments, ect...
Questions:
How hilly would you rate this ride? http://app.strava.com/rides/9242348
Arbitrary scale of 0-5
How accurate would you say the power column is? It seems very high, but I don't have a meter of any sorts to measure with.
