    Right. My contention is that even if you choose a grade which is
    perfect for a given unicycle wheel size, a reasonably-equipped
    single-speed bike with platform pedals will still be significantly
    faster, given equivalent rider strength and skill. My experience with
    big hill climbs out here is similar to yours.

    One of us has to visit the other's coast and we'll do one together, then
    I'll buy you a well-earned beer.
