I have driven roads in California that post a 10% grade. The steepest grades I ever rode were in Utah and Texas. Utah had long hills (a mile or so) at 15% and in Texas, thankfully these were very short, but the grades were close to 20-25%. Gads, they seemed straight up and down!!!!! If you stop in the middle, just start walking...
