My riding partner thrives on hills. He has had his bike in for repair due to his abuse of his gears on hills.
I tend to use smaller gears at an higher cadence on the hills.
I really struggle on short steep hills, but am ok on long steady climbs.
I understand it is about slow and fast twitch muscles, but is there a way I can improve my hill climbs?
Is it just a case of practice, practice and more practice?
