  1. Here is the interview we did last week with Frank Chan the man who
    powered up the six steepest streets in San Francisco:

    http://nationalbicyclegreenway.com/Podcasts/FrankChan6-06.mp3

    In it, we talk with him about his short film (5:10) before he then
    tells us what it's like to ride a bike in San Francisco. If you want to
    hear what others are saying about pedaling a bike The City, go to the SF
    cell at our 2006 Mayors' Ride schedule/scorecard at:
    http://www.bikeroute.com/NationalMayorsRide2006

    There you can also see the fun movie Frank made of himself hammering
    ascents (Filbert St as well as 22nd St.) that reach as high as 31.5%.
    The only street steeper on the North American continent is Canton Ave.
    in Pittsburgh, PA at 37%. If you want to go straight to Frank's movie:

  2. After a little more research, the last paragraph s/read:

    At our schedule/scorecard, you can also see the fun movie Frank made of
    himself hammering ascents (Filbert St as well as 22nd St.) that reach as
    high as 31.5%. The only streets steeper on the North American continent
    are Canton Ave. in Pittsburgh, PA at 37% while in Los Angeles Eldred
    Street reaches 33% as Fargo, Ewing and Duane streets there also have
    grades in the 32% range.
