Do You Feel The Power?

Good morning, everybody, and happy Saturday

Before I ask this question, I should probably start with a disclaimer, so here it is- I do NOT race nor do I ever have plans to. The only race I run is against myself.

OK, now that that's out of the way, I read a lot on the various forums here about Power Meters. I'm curious to hear (read) your thoughts and opinions on them. For those of you who, like me, primarily ride for fitness and not competitively, do any of you use them? If so, how to you use the info they provide and incorporate it into your training?

I use a Cadence Sensor and HRM but have never really considered a Power Meter simply because I've always thought that they were more useful to competitive riders. Am I wrong in thinking this?

Anyway, more of just an academic question. I'd like to know what you think.

Smooth roads!
