Do I want cadence on my computer?

Hmmm maybe I do need cadence afterall. It would be nice to keep up with hubby a little easier. And I tend towards mashing, so it'd help to learn to spin. Hubby issues are 1. he's stronger 2. he likes to fly along and gets antsy going slow and I sometimes like to just roll along the countryside and enjoy it (heaven forbid!) 3. he has a mirror, but doesn't seem to check to see where I am.... ever.... I think most of the problem is #2- mindsets about riding. He tends to have to perfect sports and likes to push himself. I, OTOH tend towards lazy, tho tend to push myself when alone- no one to enjoy to view with. Our last outing he did stick with me a bit more and take in the sights, but it would probably help us both be a bit happier if I can work on my speed.

Maybe you just need to ride separately sometimes, so that you can do your cruising-along thing and he can do his pushing-himself thing.

My husband and I have a similar situation, although it's more about degree; he and I disagree about how much I'm pushing myself!

We do ride separately most of the time- we just haven't figured out how to ride together yet I guess!

Yes, if you are sort of a masher then cadence will help you a lot. So I'd say go for it.
