I can see the logic behind training with gears though. Easier to mix it up (do cyclist do fartlek style interval training?).
Serious question!
I am going to be be cycling from an altitude of 0m to 1500m over 21km at very consistant gradient, this summer. I have my heart set on doing this fixed (say 42:22, not decided yet), and have seen it mentioned a few times that climbing fixed is somehow very effective. Is it?
