Ok, I'm getting distinct impression that what people call a "hill" can vary greatly. I call a hill anything with like a 6% or higher grade. Around here, you usually hit ones that are anywhere from a mile to three miles in length and the grade varies on each particular hill anywhere from 6% to 10% on average. I only do between 6 mph and 8 mph up those two or three mile suckers, averaging like 7 mph (obvously )

On a smaller continuous grade (like 5% steady), I can comfortably ride 10-11 mph.

See? Hills are not my friends!!!

So, what's a hill to YOU?
