It will be interesting to see the Polar HR data from today's ride by Knaven. He's one of a handful
of riders who have their HR info available at: tdf.polar.fiheartrates.htmlOpen ↗ But
he's the first stage winner of the bunch. It will be fun to see how he managed his ride with the
breakaway and attack. Probably will be posted tomorrow.

Cool site, great info. Take a look at Mancebo, Stage 8, L'Alpde d'Huez.The grade on L'Alpe is highly non-uniform, yet he maintains a quite steady HR there. Lesson for
the masses?Dan

Should be, if they haven't learned it already. I remember the first time I did a very-familiar local
climb using an HRM to stay at LT (which I'd sussed via conconi-style testing). I was firstly amazed
at how much more my gearing and tempo varied with gradient changes, and secondly by finishing the
climb with a PR while feeling fresher at the top than I ever had before. Darned useful devices, if
you take the time to learn your LT.SB

The HR data from these TdF participants isn't nearly as interesting as the data from Mattis
of Webcor. -

Come on Ewoud.
Please be nice to Dan, he hasn't been around for awhile.

I wasn't sure if I was being nice or not, my first thought after reading Dan's line was: "yes it
is!", but when I checked the graph: well mm mmm, maybe it's not "highly non-uniform" but not very
regular either. So no comment, just the url. -
I predict that his HR will be moderately high, then higher still towards the end.

Yeah: that there's a significant time delay (half-life ~30 s) between changes in exercise intensity
and changes in heart rate.Andy Coggan

Yeah: that there's a significant time delay (half-life ~30 s) between changes in exercise
intensity and changes in heart rate.Are you implying he was sharply changing the intensity of his physical effort while going up such a
long climb? Why would a non-uniform climb *require* non-uniform power delivery, assuming you mean
that "exercise intensity" is associated with power output?I don't know about you, but on long climbs, I go slowest on the steepest parts and faster on the
less steep parts. That is some pretty weird [censored]... yawn. -

It's there now, if you're still interested. I'm not quite sure how informative it is.

Erm well, informative, in any case nice to have a look at for a minute.

That's the issue in a nutshell, I think. The graphs are kinda pretty to look at but what do you do
with them? I tend to think that the software that comes with HRMs and power meters is optimized for
drawing nice graphs, but not so much for useful information. -
