Excellent :-)Did you scan that yourself or can it be found elsewhere on the 'net?
Failing that, would you object if attention were drawn to your website
in the shed?
It's a scan by one of the other folk in urw, Dave Newton. This is the
thread where I asked him to put it up on the web:
http://groups.google.com/group/uk.rec.walking/browse_frm/thread/36ce6fca11563c17/
It seems you were amazed then as well :-O
I'll leave it there for a while...
I once tried to drive a minibus up the pass (don't ask me which one; I
think it was Hardknott BICBW 'cos I can't remember now which direction
we were going in). Reversing back down was 'fun' when I realised that
with that much traffic around it was going to be stop start stop all the
way. The problem was that I was physically incapable of operating the
handbrake successfully, so would be unable to rely on it either
ascending or descending.
A later adaptation was an extension to the lever, giving more, er,
leverage. It was very successful and I was finally able to stop the bus
on a hill where previously I'd not dared.
