Black Mountain whooped my butt !!

rhagfo, I fully agree! A slow moving vehicle can be as, or more dangerous than faster. So following the rules of defensive driving, I try to maintain speeds according to the prevailing traffic at any particular time, and try to be as aware of traffic behind me as in front. In our case, going over mountains or other pulls and downhills both, we just tuck in with the slower moving traffic, and try not to obstruct or push. Yea, we don't have mountains here ease of the Mississippi. but we do have some pretty good bumps in the roads.
