Default AG: Spinning, slogging, grinding and hills


When we tell people that it isn't a good idea to wreck your knees and
exhaust yourself by slogging up hills, they seem to think that we're
saying "spin furiously and get all out of breath".

The idea is to shift down until you can keep up your normal cadence
without pushing any harder than usual. When you can do that, a hill
is no problem at all. Boring, perhaps, but not a problem.
