Climbing - when you stand on the pedals shift up a gear or two, than shift back down when you sit again. Unless the last part of the ride is uphill, take it real easy in that last half mile - keep the feet moving around with the pedals but dont put any effort into it. The movement keeps the blood flowing through the muscles and flushes out the lactic acid.
