Yeah, I used to use the same zig zag to get up a series of hills. My route was a morning and afternoon route. I used my older brother's bike until I saved enough to buy my own. The thing I remember most was how difficult it was to steer with all the weight on the bike... front basket and rear baskets full. I had 80 morning customers and onver 100 evening customers. Winters were miserable.

OK, with that dose of nostalgia, I won't complain anymore this week about any hills I have to climb!

Thanks for the flashback to a time I had forgotten.
