My dad growing up in Germany in the 30s and 40s only had a single speed and would travel 100s of KMs each summer just to see the country. The big diesel trucks were so slow going up the mountain passes, he and his buddies would grab the side end of the trucks and hold on up to the summit. They thought nothing about it. Lucky I am even here.
