I live in Indy which is as flat as a pancake and I am training for nationals in seven springs PA where there is 3000Ft of climbing in the RR. Is there anyway I can get better at hills w/o having hills around here?

You can also get a basic trainer and adjust the tension up. You can place a block under the front tire to help simulate the position.
