I have my own reasons in that I am not a speed merchant and I have bikes set up for a few slopes
What are your thoughts?
I think you answered your own question with
this.
I like to climb but do not do much of it only because I do not want to load up the bike and drive 1 and half to 2 hours to the mountains in Va.. I have and will again though but there are some who do not like to climb for whatever reason and would rather ride fast because they
enjoy it.
When I read all the ride reports from the guys out west in the Rockies I wish I could be them at times.
But the bottom line for me is I like to ride my bike where ever I am and what ever roads I have to ride on.
