What is the best way - easiest way to calculate RPMs?
If you want, if you can, you can do it with the music !
If you charge, on your mp3 player, predefined bpm (beats per minute) music tracks,
you can create a kind of musical tour with different bpm--->rpm and duration track.
When you will be outdoor on ÿour way, you will try to keep music beats.
You can also create a profile...endurance, intervals etc..
Warning: choose music with appropriate range of bpm !!! Is impossible to keep on hill 120 rpm.
This coming from indoor cycling training..., but sometimes can be done also outdoor ! (remember: on safe way, ...so far traffic and dangerous zone).
Sometime can be helpful...sometimes can be dangerous (outdoor)!

p.s: If you have a good feeling, you will be ready for winter indoor cycling class.
