Ken Wrote:Hills: Fuck hills. Seriously. I have small ones by me so it's not that big a deal but everything by my GF is fucking double black diamond steep. I actually don't roll much, i just hate dealing with it lol.
On hills, pull the ebrake up with release button pressed, then as you feel the clutch grab slowly let off the ebrake. That way you dont have to worry about rolling back or quickly shuffling your feet from gas to brake, brake to gas on steep inclines, cause your hand is the brake. I learned to master this craft when I frequented Charlottesville more often, where a stop sign would be at the top of a 90 degree hill. This will also come in handy when the asshole who doesn't realize there are still manual cars in the world, rolls up on your rear bumper within 2mm at a stop light/sign.
