I think it's getting up the hills at a decent pace that I struggle with, I have MTB rear mech and cassette on my road bike just so I can keep going up the hills!!!

Did a hilly 38 miles road bike on saturday 3256ft in ascent approx and I only managed a pitiful 13.2 mph - mind it was bloody hot and windy!!
When you climb do you change gears on the climb to make it easier or do you stay in the same gear from the bottom of the hill.
