I couldn't get on with handlebar mounted mirror, but I've yet to try a helmet mounted one. Hills do get easier (well at least a little bit

Thanks!
I don't relish the idea of clamping a mirror to the bars either. I mounted a bell there and and due to the sharp rise in the handlebar it already looks cluttered. I'm going to price the helmet-mounted type, as well as the eye-wear variety that Mr. Clark mentioned in his post (Thanks Rich!)
That hill outside my apartment is going to be my training ground. It's a short one, but due
up! If I can conquer that without summoning either a vicious cramp or a myocardial infarction I'll feel I've arrived.
