What, you didn't have your plug in plastic laminator along with all the food and crap you had loaded?!
I've mentioned this before re gradients somewhere on the west coast trip, but I have a clear memory of serenely honking down a long downhill at 80kph 50mph.
Must have been one of those inland detours, I seem to recall looking down on the ocean from high up with a blanket of fog all over.
