What RPM would you all consider Light, Moderate or Vigorous effort on a stationary bike?

I wish MFP offered RPM estimates. I like to try to average out MFP and the bikes reader for calories burned to get a roundabout number that's sorta accurate until I get an HRM.

    Off the top of my head:

    <85 light
    85-95 - moderate
    >95 vigorous

    That's a bit narrow, so maybe

    <80 light
    80-100 moderate
    >100 vigorous
