It's an optical illusion. The slope of the hill ridge is greater than the slope of the road. The surrounding hills and landscape features makes your eye straighten up what you are seeing and so the road appears to slope in the opposite direction. So, things appear to roll up the road.

Thanks for the explaination, I was starting to feel like a gullible fool!!

This road actually slopes down from where the picture is taken from.
