Thanks all,

I guess you should always try to spin, which will also improve your endurance. That said, if it's hilly then that is not always possible, but shouldn't be a problem in FL. When I ride fixed I just try to concentrate on improving my pedal stroke, pedaling circles, which I imagine will really help come touring season. We got hills over here, so it is a mix of sprinting your ass off and then struggling up the hills.
