Loverly – try the loop that starts at Tai Tapu domain, and goes around Cossars Wineyard. https://www.strava.com/segments/3771745 No great climbs, but a wee bit of dirt road.

A fairly good hill climb is https://www.strava.com/segments/6903271 in that its quiet, with few cars.

Then consider Sumner Road from Sumner, climb up to Evans Pass, and either out to the heads, or down to Lyttelton for coffee. A little more traffic, but not super-busy.

I see a possible Le Race in your future too !
