Do you guys think looking at this data is useful, i.e. helping to maintain consistent power rather than burning out by going too hard at first (based purely on HRM)? Worth it or better to spend the money elsewhere? I don't intend to race etc. this is purely for the fun of it and tracking any improvements.
If you have no idea how to gauge your own abilities/limitations and like introducing mathematics into your recreational bike rides it sounds like a great idea
