I'm out... Turns out my fork is tapered and not compatible with either of the ones I was going to borrow and my bike is sitting in pieces on the lounge room floor. Not sure racing on a single speed is a good idea.

Also don't underestimate multi disciplined events... You carry fatigue into each leg, regardless of whether it uses different muscles.

I have no scientific knowledge of either, but I know that since starting leg weights about 2 months ago, my ability to climb hills has dramatically increased... I also do upper body but, as a woman, that has only helped me lose weight, thus also assisting me in getting up those pesky hills.
