I have moved to a location where i cam finally ride outside with minimal traffic.
My only options out the front door are to go uphill from 250m to 1000+ or to descend to sea level.
There is no "flat" riding that would not involve being in an urban area with traffic, lights and all the other stuff that accompanies it.
I can do a loop of 60k with 1k meters of climbing (thats approximately 40 miles and 3000 feet in old money ;)). 75% of the ride is going up / flat and 15-25% coming down.
Whats the best way to take advantage of the terrain. Ride uphill and vary intensity, cadence? and gearing.
One hour on the trainer was always very productive. I would think one hour riding uphill could be equally productive the question is how best to take advantage of it.
