So turn the tables and laugh at them first. Take the position of "why were you guys stupid enough to put a speed reduction sign AFTER a curve". Logically that does not make any sense. What makes less sense is an increased limit on a steep uphill?. Also it would be good to find out from the lawmakers in your area why all of the speed changes in the first place. If they have any logic for their reasons at that point they will understand yours.
Around here most roads are at a set limit with temporary, caution or warning limits only (not mandatory or enforced) for curves or dangerous areas. Some times on long stretches there will be a permanent reduction with speed step downs approaching and through a remote town. This is logical because everyone knows why it has changed.
