Yes, it was quite a long winded way to say kinda sorta maybe.Basically saying, the USGS data is an excellent data source but as with anything there are always inherent inaccuracies with any measurement.
Standing/sitting: I'll stand in the pedals frequently on these steep parts I just mentioned but not all the time or maybe just stand on 1 or 2 of the incremental parts. I'm used to the short steep and I love them and don't seem to be able to muster the kind of power/speed I would like to on lower longer grades.
