Well speaking of confidence I had to admit I was a little bit anxious (maybe more than a little bit - me=8O ) as I eyed the steep climbs at first...mainly because you want to trust the machine you're on and the 150 was unproven yet for me. The grin I sported after the first climb was doubly wide cuz the bike really punched up the hill in 2nd gear with very little effort...and decently controllable. I know lotsa people on this board are looking at switching sprockets, etc. but we agreed that our 150s are actually geared quite well for the pit 8)
