Techniques are disclosed to enable relative performance measurement of a cyclist by way of an electronic device for use in connection with a bicycle. The electronic device determines and communicates an exertion level and a corresponding actual performance metric achieved by a cyclist based on movement characteristics of the bicycle and whether the cyclist's shoes are clipped into pedals on the bicycle. The device uses sensors for determining the movement characteristics of the bicycle in connection with a memory element and a processing element. The processing element ascertains a pedal clip status event based on the movement characteristics of the bicycle, and the device displays information about the exertion level of the cyclist as correlated with the actual bicycle performance metrics.
