Toughest climb

If for the long time I can't climb a certain stretch, I am most likely use the wrong gears!

This is the steepest climb on Bridal Path that finally after many months I was able to do on Dec 31, 2011.
Some guy suggested this gear combination:
GRANNY up front and the SECOND BIGGEST ring in the back.
I climbed it mostly sitting and to my biggest surprise I did it.
Until this attempt I was using the MIDDLE ring up front and the BIGGEST one in the back, no way it was doable!
