It's been a while since I went up North Gate Rd, but it didn't seem like a
continual 8-10%.  Maybe a steeper pitch here and there, but it's a moderate
and climbable road for the most part.  5-6% seems more correct.

But, hey, I live in the West Bay... and the last time I went up it was -
yikes - 2007.
