Go fixed and find a gearing that you are A- comfortable with and B- can slog it round both up and down. I used to commute over the southdowns everyday and there wasn't really anything in it between doing it geared and fixed, if anything I found myself being lazy riding geared and costing down the way and opting for the granny gear up the way.
