What type of cycling do you do?
Mountain, road

What information do you rely on while cycling? Mileage, Odometer, Time, Current Speed, Avg. Speed, Max Speed, Peak Power, Time in Zones, Current Power, Avg. Power, Max. Power, Current HR, Avg. HR, Current Cadence, Avg. Cadence, Energy Expenditure, GPS data, other
Other I guess, sight, smell, sound works well for me. At one point or another I've used computers and HR monitors with a full range of features (including an HRM and altimeter) but don't have much use for them for the last few years.

Do you use the same information with all of your biking (road, mountain, cycle-cross, trainer, commuting, ...). If not, how does the information differ and why?
When I used a computer I'd use it on both offroad and on.


What information would you like to have that you don't have already? Is there something already out there that you don’t have and is there something not on the market that you feel would be useful?
There's more than enough choice should I go back to data gathering devices...


Do you feel that having as much information as possible is or would be a benefit to you? Please explain.
Just my natural senses gives me plenty of input.

Do you feel that being able to have this information on all your bikes is or would be a benefit? Please explain.
If I used a device, it would be most useful if it can handle several different types of bikes and wheel sizes.

What do you do with the information when you’re done with your ride?
I used to hand record it in a log way back when, then kept a computer record when that became available.

Do you feel that having a way to keep track of this information is or would be a benefit to you? Please explain.
The more flexible the information management can be the more useful the devices become...
