last stretch up to the place has a little section at the top going through a curve that seems like the upper teens for approx 20 pedal strokes out of the saddle. the uphill .2 mile is in the 13% range. it's substantial enough i can count on adding 150 el gain at the end of the ride but also dissuades me from tackling an extra climb or two enroute so that i can get home without clipping out/stopping/paperboying on that last climb.
