That ride can have a few monster hills on it, depending on the route you take. If you go up Genese from my house, for example, you have to do four big climbs before you even get to Torrey Pines State Park and begin the true coastal portion of the ride. I had a low gear of 36x29 yesterday and I was still wishing for something a bit lower! But that may be more an indication of my fitness level than anything.
