Deb - you must have some serious hills where you ride. Yes? Not to mention how beautiful I hear it is out there. So do you like to spin up hill or are you a stander?

I'm headed back to the bike shop to do some more test riding this weekend and focus specifically on gearing up hills. Fortunately, the LBS seems like they will be quite accomodating to whatever works for me.
