Yesterday I rode one of my regular routes, and very nice it was. After a bit over 30 miles, there's
a steep hill. Yesterday, however, I turned off on one of those lovely 'Unsuitable for heavy goods
vehicles' roads and avoided the steepie -- but had to make the same height acquisition over a
distance about three times as long. The choice next time I go that way is now a hard half mile on
the granny (not you, you silly old bat) or 1.5 miles grinding away in the middle gears. I haven't
decided which is best, though I think it's the short hard climb. How do other people approach a
choice like that?
