I met a cross country cyclist this summer that said "I have never met a hill I couldn't walk"
What are the options, walk the hill or sag home?
Walking the hill will win out everytime.
Great job and keep going! ! !

It's about the journey and being in the moment, not about the destination

No shame!
There's no shame in walking a hill. Even the pros have to do it from time to time, such as on the Koppenberg in this year's Tour of Flanders... only 7 guys out of the peloton made it up this one without walking their bikes!!

And if Alessandro Petacchi has to walk a hill from time to time, I'm certain that you can be excused too...

In fact, there's a whole branch of the sport organized around walking or toting your bike up these sorts of hills and into other places... cyclo-cross!
