    I suspect that the thing is doing something other than 'going'.

    ... is that like going for an 'adventure ride' then turning around because the descent is too steep for your constitution ?

    It's possibly only too steep if you can't get back up again? Or maybe if it is more 'fall down' than 'ride down' (which would be too steep to get up again).

    Surely there is some difference between having a go and setting up a shot in a studio?

    The Ice studs were the clincher to the success of our trip. 120 of them fitted. It took us an hour with a screwdriver adapter in the Hotel Garage in Mora. Here is John the Co-pilot and navigator.

    If this is your first post, I suggest your second one should be a ride report about this journey.

    Congratulations to Kev, who started this thread, on reaching 400 pages.
    As we know, lengthy threads can be tedious, no names no pack drill, but this ongoing feature of "Hacks" is a joy.
    Oh, and well done Bernie Winter.
