Pace yourself, stay calm, and remember to enjoy the ride. A cadence of 90 rpm on flats is usually accepted as the “ideal” though riding at a slightly higher or lower cadence is totally fine. When going up on hills, use a smaller bicycle gear. In hillier areas, those who have a sportier commuter bike can work with a bottom gear of 30 inches. A lower gear combination is achieved by shifting the front gear onto the smaller chainring and rear gear to a bigger cassette sprocket. When going down on hills, shift to higher bike gear. The general idea of riding is that you want to try to keep a steady cadence (how many times your feet/pedals rotate per minute) whether you are riding uphill, downhill or flat. A lower gear is achieved by using a smaller chainring with a bigger cassette gear. Regularly riding up inclines, interval training, improving fitness, and using gears effectively are key.
