there is a very steep hill I have tried to climb several times. I won't even bother to say how far I get up before I walk. Just know it isn't much.

How do you start climbing a hill from its base? There is no way you can make a riding start on this hill. There is a four stop at the bottom of the hill and you have to obey it. The hill elevates approximately 35 feet in a tiny bit over .06 mile.
