Thats the way to conquer any hill, Moo...
Decide you can and will, then get in a rythym and stick with it... ignore anyone else approaching, passing or sitting on your tail.Its your rythym, and thats what will get you up...
There are a few hills on my regular rides where I sit at 5-7km/h and just chug along. My aim is to get faster, because then I spend less time chugging, but chugging along gets me there.
And thanks for posting the pic... thats one damn loooong hill to chug up. you should absolutely feel well proud.
thanks for the pic and modest words, another inspiring tale to motivate me

Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
"I will try again tomorrow".

i too am afraid of hills - in fact I think I probably average 5.6 on the flat!
I once met Gary Fisher at a bike race, he said he fixes something in his head at the right cadence to pedal to.... " Drink. Beer. Drink. Beer. Drink Beer "
