As for your condition, I hope you've had that cleared with a doctor beforehand. Wish you the best on your climbs!
I do a lot of climb rides with the club and this is the only one that does me in. On my own I do a ride about once a week that is a 2.5 mile look and it includes a half mile of climbing but is nothing compared to what I have done today. Maybe I need to attempt this ride a couple of times per year just to see if I am beating this climb.
