I am glad to hear not realistic grades - I know a guy who works at the gym, and is a longtime serious biker. he did a test ride,and told me that it was a "realistic" ride - of course it is stationary and indoors...You do get to steer, and the downhill portions are pretty cool, although you can't really "coast".
Last week I did a 10 mile course that had max grade of 36% - several of them. This week's course was a little over 5 miles, but the 2nd half of the course was pretty much all uphill.
On a positive note, my leg is feeling pretty solid, and I will be backing off the biking a little in favor of elliptical and walking. |

That's awesome to hear, Chenille! Before you know it, you'll be jogging and then running again! |
