I don’t let my HR get stay above 160 for too long.

For peace of mind I have the RoadId app which notifies my wife if I have stopped cycling. I also have the series 4 Apple watch with EKG capabilities and fall monitor.

I feel better when I know someone is electronically tracking me.

Good luck to you. Let your cardiologist become your new best friend.
