1. An apparatus comprising:

  • a processing device configured to obtain exercise data of a user from a plurality of measurement sensors associated with bicycling, the exercise data comprising training parameters relating to the user'"'"'s actions during bicycling, at least one of the measurement sensors being a speed sensor, the exercise data comprising speed data, the processing device identifying a present exercise phase of an exercise from among a plurality of exercise phases on the basis of the speed data, the processing device selecting a relevant display mode from among a plurality of display modes on the basis of the present exercise phase and a mapping between the display modes and the exercise phases, the processing device automatically switching between display modes relevant to the present exercise phase based on the speed data, wherein the relevant display mode defines a set of display elements associated with the present exercise phase to be displayed to the user, wherein each display element comprises exercise data; and

    a display configured to display the relevant display mode to the user during bicycling, the plurality of display modes comprising a summary display mode comprising a present heart rate, a travelled distance, and an elapsed exercise time as display elements, and at least one of the following;

    an uphill display mode comprising increase in heart rate, starting from the bottom of the hill, steepness of the hill, and an elapsed time going uphill as display elements;

    a downhill display mode comprising decrease in heart rate, starting from the top of the hill, speed, and an elapsed time going downhill as display elements;

    a speed interval display mode comprising increase in heart rate, starting from the start of the speed interval, average speed during the speed interval, and an elapsed time since the start of the speed interval as display elements;

    a recovery period display mode comprising decrease in heart rate, starting from the start of the recovery period, a reaction diagram illustrating a previous speed interval, and an elapsed recovery time as display elements;

    a heart rate interval display mode comprising increase in heart rate, starting from the start of the heart rate interval, travelled distance during the heart rate interval, and an elapsed time since the start of the heart rate interval as display elements;

    a recovery period display mode comprising decrease in heart rate, starting from the start of the recovery period, a reaction diagram illustrating a previous heart rate interval, and an elapsed recovery time as display elements;

    a cadence interval display mode comprising cadence as rotations per minute, average speed during the cadence interval, and an elapsed time since the start of the cadence interval as display elements;

    a recovery period display mode comprising decrease in heart rate, starting from the start of the recovery period, a reaction diagram illustrating the previous cadence interval, and an elapsed recovery time as display elements;

    a power interval display mode comprising increase in heart rate, starting from the start of the power interval, average pedalling power in watts, and an elapsed time since the start of the power interval as display elements;

    a recovery period display mode comprising decrease in heart rate, starting from the start of the recovery period, a reaction diagram illustrating the previous power interval, and an elapsed recovery time as display elements; and

    another display mode comprising at least two display elements selected from a group comprising;

    heart rate, heart rate variability, speed, cadence, body temperature, hydration level, breathing characteristics, pedalling balance, pedalling power, altitude, ascent, descent, pressure, ambient temperature, location, and wind characteristics.
