That's me ascending Fargo Street in Los Angeles. Photo by my brother, Dave.

While it was too tough to make the entire climb on this bike, I successfully climbed this hill on my Klein road bike and a borrowed mountain bike with 29" wheels and very low gears, and made the climb on that bike as well. I found the mountain bike difficult to ride up this steep hill (33%), because it took a lot of spinning while sitting down. I prefer to stand in a higher gear.
