I've always reckoned that 50ft/mile is an average ride, anything less than 25ft/mile is a flat ride, and 100ft/mile is a pretty hilly ride (though I've always worked in m/100km).
Back in the old days before AAA points had been invented, any event over 22m/km (115ft/mile) was a "super grimpeur", and qualified you for a gold badge. Mind you, that was worked out by contour counting on paper maps, and that doesn't read as high as a GPS does. You probably also had to do the full 200km too.

According to Garmin Connect Iam 32.79ft per mile now but that doesn include circa 2000 miles which is mainly the flat commute which will bring that down even further last night ride was only 26.16ft per mile and this morning's commute was only 31.74ft/mile because I went up one of the local bumps on route.

Per my Strava profile I am at 23.19 feet per mile, but then Strava steals shed loads of elevation off me!

Mines about 58 ft/mile. 5.6 mile commute with 330 ft of climbing 5 days a week. I could do 5 and 380 or 10 and 340 but this way is fun.
When the weather improves it'll increase as I will do hill repeats at lunch to boost my climbing legs!

46.15 commuting around the suburbs of Aberdeen.
I thought it would be more. Bloody feels like it, especially going home.
