I like cycling on secondary roads, where steep grade hills, and gravel are present. My first bike was a Western Flyer, single speed and ever since if the going got tough, I would mash those pedals.
Now I just got my Bike rebuilt. a Trek 7300 hybrid. I'm about to start the cycling season, any advice for hill climbing in the countryside without mashing the pedals.
Do I need lower gearing? I do not cycle at fast speeds.
