That seems logical to me.Uawadall said:I'm 3 months in (a relative newbie), but I thought I'd give my experience from a week ago. I did a 33 mile group ride and stood up during nearly every climb, it felt great and I went through the climbs relatively fast. Nothing was crazy steep, but some were decent. The next day I went for another 30 miler and started climbing a very steep hill at the 20 mile point(1.2 miles at a 6% grade). I started seated and when I tried to stand, my legs were very fatigued and my energy seemed to be sapped right out of me. I had to sit the entire climb, slower, but got the job done. From now on, I will use standing climbing for minor climbs and towards the end of climbs.
