A system for determining power expended by a bicyclist while riding a bicycle based on speed measurements or sensed-speed values. The system includes a sensing device arranged for detecting a speed-related value of the bicycle and a processor that communicates with the sensing device. The processor is configured to determine a change in the speed-related value and to determine a power value based on the change in the speed-related value.
