I keep hearing from my friends about cycling climbing all the time. I am not very good at it. That doesn’t mean that I don’t want to become a better rider. I want to climb faster. I would appreciate any climbing faster advice since it would be of great help to me. Thanks.

Since climbing hills is demanding discipline have to become strong. You have to strengthen your leg muscles. The best way to achieve this is doing sprint intervals and lifting weights. Then you have to get smart. You should observe more experienced riders and try to duplicate their tactics. Paying attention to the rider that has similar abilities may prove beneficial. If he manages to ride easy in certain section you can use his tactics to do the same. If I were you, I would try to find several more experienced riders and watch closely how they economize their energy and pace on climbs to catch important clues. You may learn a lot.
