Thanks Owlie,
I will learn all the proper terms for what I am doing, or trying to do!! Well I think I am a Masher, Maybe a wanna be spinner. I love the speed, just a little scary when I get over 20 mph. 20 is a stretch for any length, flat roads, no little hills to help. I am going to Colorado Springs in 2 weeks. Visiting some bike shops. We want to rent road bikes. The thought of Colorado hills makes me have butterflies in my stomach. Never ridden on a hill, a mountain looks like Goliath at this point.
Thanks for any hill riding advice.
