Mount Wallace
I saw the Mount Wallace north of Geelong had some riders walking again yesterday in the Womens tour. What is the gradient of said mount? I looks like a killer! -- neon

I reckon the steepest pinch might be pushing 20%, but it ain't walking territory they're all soft! Lama- I may be racing saturday due to the early start, yehaa!!! -- Jono L

Bashed it out on bikely to have a look. If it is accurate, it rises ~ 100 m over ~500 m = 20%. -- roshea
