Newish to riding, OK on the flats, but not getting up hills all that well. Not overweight (probably the reverse actually, I'm pretty skinny), but am getting dropped on any decent rise .. though seem to pull some of that back on really long climbs.
How can I tell if the limiting factor for me is my leg strength/power or my cardio system? I've been doing my 2 x 20's around LT, and my 6 x 3's around 90% of MHR and I've seen benefits from that in cruising speed and endurance. But the hills, the hills.
Thanks in advance.
