  • Hill climbing is awesome fun. It makes you strong. Anyone can draft on a flat road for hours in a boring peleton. It's when you get to the hills, the true tough riders then shine.

  • lol. I ride uphill daily on my mountain bike on the way to work. It has seriously strengthened my legs. I used to struggle with running long distance but since biking uphill over the last year running is now a piece of cake.

  • I'm a noob bike rider. Is it best to go to the lower gears when going up hill? or higher gears?

  • Looks like you could do with some lower gears

  • We used to ride our mountain bikes up Jester.. Lakewood is fun too. Of course we had like 20x28 gears too, lol.

  • u want steep hills come to st.thomas we got black point,donkey hill,crown mountain,mafolie,raphune hill,donoe bypass,magens hill and all of them are 20percent grade and above and there is so many more i havent mentioned

  • ...forgot to mention - Spicewood SE of Cap. of TX Hwy, too - that hurt!  Just plain torture.

  • For a Michigan flatlander, I'm not a bad hill climber.  On a visit to Austin this summer, I did Beauford (back side of Jester - maybe steeper), Far West, and Spicewood Spgs. NE of Lampasas in one ride - grueling but gratifying. Beauford is just sick!

  • yeah thats about right, and if you want a killer climbing ride do: far west boulevard, jester, city park, and courtyard

  • 17-20% for a half mile.
