I had a fancy cassete player in my first 2 cars (same player that I just transfered over), if the gap between the different tracks was long enough you could skip forward a track. It would FFWD until it found the gap and then play from there.

Was coming down a hill pretty fast today on the MTB, marvelling at how great disk brakes are and remembering how, as a kid, I'd stick my takkied-foot against the front tyre to slow down when the brake pads wore out but I still wanted to ride my bike . . .

Takkied foot .... you were one of the rich kids ... I used to use my bare feet on the rims (Could not even afford tyres) to slow down slowly
