Great workout if you had a tough hill climb the day before.

Goal of this work out is to log LOTS of miles, so no resistence over a 7 (1-10 scale), and a 6 is good enough if you are pushing it.  I also encourage active recoveries during this work out and discourge the downhill feeling until the very end.  If your bikes log mileage, use this for encouragement!
