Like the other commenter suggested, a HR monitor will give you more information about your output. I use a Garmin Fenix 3 HR and the data gives me a great look at my effort levels during rides. It also helps me maintain certain HR zones so I don't over-ride on easy days. I was guilty of riding too hard, too often in previous years.
At the end of last year, I purchased "Prepare to Pin It" from Lee Likes Bikes. Following his suggested training regimen has significantly increased my climbing endurance. Which also helps on the descents because I'm not completely wasted, and can properly send it with strong legs and lungs.
I use a Fenix and it's super nice. Compass, 10 digit MGRS and nav capabilities. Supposedly I can add some minimal map imagery to it but I've never tried. It's not a cheap watch but I fucking love it.

Same reduced price in a bunch of other places (Amazon, B&H, etc.) too.
Reason: new Fenix models likely to be introduced early next year...
And yet, you can get the Fenix 3 for HR for $299 from Amazon
But. For some, I guess, the Fenix 5 is worth it. Personally, I am tempted to buy a spare Fenix 3 due to the cost difference.
