Please explain to me what component of velocity is changing when you are going uphill at a constant speed in a straight line?!?

There is no acceleration unless there is change in velocity or you have a different definition of acceleration than I've provided. Please provide a reference for your false assumptions.


You are confusing acceleration with force. Gravity generates a force between two objects. In the absence of an opposing force (i.e., pedaling), the objects will accelerate towards each other. Since the Earth outweighs us by 10^23 times, we move more than the Earth does.
