New Year resolution!

So far, so good! I'm not going to use bottom gear ever again (unless I come across a really tough hill!) but for my area I shouldn't have the need to be in "1st". So three commutes and a 35mile Sunday ride later I haven't cracked.
good luck with your cycling NYR

39 x 21 - that's all you need as your lowest gear
