climbing question

I'd put it on after I stopped at the bottom and stood there cursing the wall and whosever idea it was for me to go down the stinking hill in the first place!

I'd shift as I was descending, assuming there wasn't any flat bit in the middle I needed to power through.

I'd shift a little before the end of the hill before stopping to start back up and also start cursing with a definate "oh crap" thrown in.

That's what BF said, too! I'll try that next time.

This is exactly what I did, down to the cursing! My initial thought was I'd have to walk back up, but I manually shifted, and rode out.
