Cyclists are pretty obsessive about their equipment. Everything needs to be meticulously cleaned after use and ordered in a particular way, and this pedantry ramps up a couple of notches when it comes to our cycling computers. 

Organising the data pages of a cycling computer is an arduous exercise at the best of times and I've often wondered if any riders from the pro peloton obsess over the same things we do. Which fields do they prefer or value most, how do they go about prioritising pertinent metrics such as power and heart rate and, more importantly, do their page layouts differ much from us mere mortals?
