Living in Hong Kong for three years helped me but I think riding the turbo has been a massive help.
Shitty old fluid turbos with small flywheels don’t give you any help by creating lots of inertia, meaning it’s not dissimilar to climbing.
But - just go and ride lots of hills with guys who are faster. You’ll get there quickly.
