do you ever bother checking the grade of your climb?

I usually pay more attention to the gear I'm in than the grade. Although I a m looking at getting one of those super-duper computers

[NoNo]

I can't wait till it's nice enough to get on the road again so I can try out the altimeter on my CS400. Hills are my enemy. It doesn't take much to slow me down, though I seem to be able to power up relatively steep inclines if they're short. Forget the long, slow ones, they just wipe me out. I'm hoping having hard data will help me find where my cut-off is. It'll also be interesting to see what my HR is while I'm struggling, as I seem to think it's pretty high just tooling along on the trainer. Ahhhhh, numbers and gizmos

Any fairly hilly hill I will be in my easiest gear anyway. But it thrills me to know from DBF's computer how steep it was.

So I am probably quite obsessed.
