The AM Scale is part of social cycling, cycling for fun and route planning. Named after its inventors, Mr Ali and Mr Mackie in 2021 while cycling together in Southern England, its a very basic indicator of how hard, or easy, a social bike ride will be. It use is aimed at beginner to intermediate cyclists. The scale is a integer number denoting how much climbing a given cycling route will encounter along its whole length. Taking the entire route length, dividing by the total altitude gained within the ride and then multiplying by 100, you get a figure, rounded to the nearest number. The aim is to find rides which are a 10, that is to say climb 1000M in 100KM of cycling. Rides which are easier will have a AM number of less than 10, rides which are harder are above 10. The scale is flawed, in that it does not indicate whether all the climbing in a bike ride will be done in a short distance, a period of intense effort, or whether the climbing is spread uniformly and evenly throughout the entire distance covered It is just an indicator. For example, a social bike ride starting at the Tower Of London in central London and finishing at Windsor castle just over 50km away, has an elevation of 160M. This gives an AM scale figure of 3. Aside from the distance covered, this is a relatively easy going ride. In a second example, the famous Tour De France climb of Mont Ventoux from Bedoin climbing over 1550M to the summit in a distance of 21KM has an AM scale of 74, this is considerably harder.
