Thanks for the extra input Abe. Most of the courier runs in Montreal are at the bottom of the mountain, just running back and forth (where the majority of the businesses are), with the occassional climb or descent up or down one block. The bugger is the occasional hospital run, most of which are way up the mountain. Spinning back down would probably be worse than grinnding up. All that being said, there are a few fixxed couriers in Montreal. I've sent a few emails to people who would know about the scene, but thus far no response. At the very worst, I'll sort it out once I get there.
