Jobob and Veronica run similar gears. It's what gets us up the Bay Area mountains. I didn't need those low gears until I started riding Diablo and Hamilton with them.
LRRH doesn't need these low gears. Pretty durn flat. I don't think I ever used the granny, but I accidentally left a 13-28 cassette on my Litespeed for that ride when I normally use a 13-26 for the flats. Funny how that little tiny change made a difference. I kept finding "holes" in the spacing. I'm such a princess.
