thats awesome, give it a month and you will be flying up that hill without any effort.

on the light thing the plannet bike blaze 2 watt is pretty nice and only $45-$50 or you can go really nice and check out a few others like the night rider minewt which is around $100 and my favorite the light and motion stella for around $200. Super bright, about 4-5 hours battery life on high and lightweight
