Sheesh! I thought we were moving to a FLAT area, or relatively so, anywho. Today out west of the city in the Shawnee area, we hit huge hill after huge hill. I actually had to walk up one as I couldn't make it up even in my granny, and many times I was in my easiest gear in back (25t) and in front (30t) and still struggling with super low cadence. But on the back side, I hit 40 mph going downhill, and I am a lightweight, so that's pretty darn good -- especially since I was coasting. Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!

I'm wondering just how far west of the city I'd have to ride to actually hit "the flats". Anyone know? ;-)
