Hmmm... I haven't paid much attention to it.

No VAMS on one 1/2 mile segment that I had pushed pretty hard on.

But, it looks like for a couple of longer hills, I'm hitting 500 to 700 VAMS Just riding along (JRA).

There are a few anomalous readings, but I don't think I'm riding up 152% grades.

Ok, going back to one PR that I pounded on a bit.

130 feet climbing, 2:01, 13.2 MPH, 0.44 miles. 6% average.

VAM = vertical meters per hour.

So, calculating that out comes to about 1180 VAM.

But, definitely not done in a steady state.

Hmmm, second half of that climb, I was going about 11 MPH, with a VAM of about 1125

It looks like I need to knock off about 10 seconds to take back the KOM (not a lot of riders). I haven't tried a hard climb on the hill for about a year.
