I've had my single speed for a couple of months and until yesterday I'd never dealt with hills on the bike before (I live in a flat city).
But I'd like to join rides which may include them a bit. Yesterday I went on a ride for first time with others with some hills on route. I coped fine with and actually enjoyed it!
Will practice help me to improve with hills? I'm more concerned with dealing with longer, constantly going up hill rides, but maybe fitness helps with this? Longest I've ridden is 20 miles up to now, so not far.
My gearing is 42/16.
