For just spinning I use whatever gear feels good. I have six or seven different cassettes, 12-25, 12-27, 11-25, 11-27, 11-28, it all depends on where I'm riding. This weekend I will be using a 50/34 crankset with an 11/28 cassette. The first 75 miles of the ride will have a couple of decent climbs, the final 8 miles is uphill with the final 1.5 miles being a steady 12%.
