Geezer,
Since we were on Washington Highway 9, and it is a winding 2 lane road,
I guess you'd say we were in the "left hand lane", or "right hand
land... whatever!
But I did manage to keep the revs down since we didn't use the Freeway.
At least until we reached Canadian highway 1 and those TR6's stretched
it out a bit. At that point, we did a bit of lane changing to keep out
of the way of those Canucks that were traveling 130+ kph. It was a 100
kph posted speed limit.
