Those tires look great in real life. I did it on some fancy 21mm gumwall clinchers and found it fine although most opted for 23's or 25's.
In terms of training you really need to work on staying in the saddle while climbing. Once you stand up it's 'very' tricky to maintain traction. But to be fair, walking your bike up steep hills is a very important part of cycling tradition too. :)
