No, I can't make it up on my FG. I've done it on my hybrid with panniers loaded with change of clothes and stuff for commuting though. The point was simply that there are some hilly areas around town. No miles-long climbs, but hills that present challenges even to accomplished cyclists.

I've done 12% hills with 46-18 gearing as recently as a couple weeks ago.
