It is flat here. All we have is the "Alp du Rickenbacker", the bridge to Key Biscayne that goes up a whopping 90 feet. But we are fast. The training rides/races are always 25 mph+, many times 35 mph+ for some fairly long stretches.
Raced in southern Wisconsin and there were some short steep climbs that I miss, but at my age, not too much. I raced criteriums almost exclusively, which were usually pretty flat.
