It is possible to put zebras on humps, but this doesn't always solve the problem - always a difficult one!The Ranty Highwaymanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17361350433158148025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803191245171285795.post-74976444650131377342013-06-20T12:39:37.221+01:002013-06-20T12:39:37.221+01:00Most cyclists don't seem to take hills properl...Most cyclists don't seem to take hills properly anyway. They use too high a gear, it's no wonder you see them struggling. All they have to do is drop down a couple of gears and boom, they can get up the hills faster. You wouldn't take Park Street at 15mph in 5th gear, why do it on a bike?ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16546164373008203651noreply@blogger.com
