    I just do whatever is needed to get over the hills/mountains, which means mostly heavy breathing.

    me too......and I had never thought about doing it any other way until you had mentioned your prediliction on a previous thread! (whew....my mental biorthym must be waaay up today). I have since tried riding on the hoods while doing a standing climb but it just ain't right!!
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
