   Oh, it is.  Though I do know something of your part of the world from a TV   
   special on Sweden by Ray Mears.  I've since downloaded a copy from EwwToob   
   ('cover' name I use for the actual site).  It's a personal favourite seen   
   quite a few times.

   It's used quite a bit here by delivery drivers, long-haul heavy vehicles,   
   tow/recovery operators and the like.  Even the Police use it to keep up with   
   traffic conditions on the highways.

   If only!  :)  For most of the year here, motorcycle jaunts are like being in a   
   fan-forced oven.  Well done, both sides.  ;)   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
