I lived in Sheffield for a year or two at the very top of Crookes, cycling around there and 40 plus miles around the peak district every Wednesday meant I no longer regarded any hill as insurmountable. I also used to cycle to Altrincham every w'end to see my girflriend and that meant going up Winnats pass from Castleton on a tourer with panniers - again mind over matter. FWIW there was a lad in the Wednesday cycling club who rode a fixie the whole distance and kept up with us all - mad.
