I was running 42:16 so I guess that's 70 gear inches. I did get part of the way up the Beacon but then lost all momentum and decided to swallow my pride and walk the rest of it. I tried to convince myself that if I was on a lighter bike I would have been fine (I have a Plug) but I was just kidding myself :-) I think a big part of it was that I didn't expect to get up it this time round so didn't go at it hard enough. Next time though......
