Glad I did at the weekend but How long was the 12% and what gearing did she have?

I never said which chain ring I used. I said I was happy to have my triple and it was difficult. I was in the big chain ring just like everyone else who climbs steep hills here in the 50+ forum
and of couse we were disappointed that the route did not turn out to be steeper
