I used to drive from Tudor Road to Birch Road via Lake Otis and Abbott Rd. There’s a steep hill on Abbott just before Birch.
Cars lined up at the top of the hill. The first one would go down, get momentum, and HOPEFULLY get all the way to the top. Then a quick right turn on to Birch.
If the first car made it, it was the next one’s turn. It was all fun and games until someone didn’t make it.
Oh my goodness...that is quite a hill. At least you all knew what needed to be done to get to Birch. Sounds like you were all responsible drivers and were there to help each other if need be.
And hoping you weren’t the one that didn’t make it.
