Are you holding it steady at 200w the whole time, or somewhere above to account for downhills etc?
Somewhere above.

The terrain does vary, and so I should really monitor NP, as my AP for the effort underestimates the TSS that I think I'm shooting for. I'm just OCD and like to see nice, big round numbers. In reality, a steady 200w for 3hrs would be a good workout for me.

I don't recall what the NP was off the top of my head, prob around 215-220w.
