(E-bikes need not apply).
The game is simple but not simple: try to get more vertical feet climbed than you have expended (kilo- or dietary) calories.
How slowly do you have to go? What is the gradient required? Obviously body size and composition and bike aero make a difference.
FWIW Anything over 5% grade will (eventually) get me there but I lose if I go over 8 mph.
