YKYAEI, you love hedges, not quite to cornish standards, but big enough to reduce an obtuse cross wind added to relative aero-load!

YKYAEI, you LOVE Irish Buses and Lorries that Aren't limited to 90km/h so you can draft them and nearly 110!

I almost missed the birth of my first daughter, if it wasn't for a 3am dash form Carlisle (Scottish border) to Warrington drafting a Irish Bus travelling at 50% more than the CAR speed limit - yes those volvo buses can pull the magic 100! - in my aged Pug 309, I went through 10gallons in 127 miles due to its shagged pierburg carb.... but mainly i remember the bus!
