That's the classic Clyde/Athena weakenss, shying away from hills/mtns. Like Herbie says, it gets better and easier. Heat becomes less of a factor. Anybody that climbs will agrree. Those that don't agree, never keep it up that long enough to make that judgement.
Look around, the best riding clydes, climb! My grandma can do flats and downhills
