  • Just ride up it,

    Ride up at TT effort if you want to do it as quickly as you can (like a TT - don't go out too hard or you will pay for it later).
    Practice by riding at a constant effort that is as hard as you can ride for 1-2hrs (doesn't need to be uphill, so long as your effort is constant)
    Otherwise just keep turning the pedals till you get to the top.

    Most Alpine/Pyrenean cols are fine as they are generally not that steep, they just take a while.
    Hell my other half rode up Alp D'Huez whilst 3-months pregnant, just kept going till she got to the top (I rode up* towing our 18month old in a trailer)

    *yes I know I am scrawny, but #1 son + trailer is an extra 30kg
