Thanks. Been wearing an HRM since the beginning. The data from that caused me to go see my doc and switch around some BP meds to get my heart rate down while riding. It worked out nicely. That's why I'm so into the data end. It shows you what's really going on when you ride. I've been trying to balance heart rate and cadence to find the best range for aerobics and fat burning without spiking too high. I was just settling on a cadence range with my first bike when I moved up to the Crossrip. Now I need to find that range again.
