Great little video on good technique with the Roadranger. Good tip on pre-loading the stick to help it pop out of gear. They do respond to a firm (but not ham fisted) hand.

When I got my HR licence back in the 80's the synchro had been removed off first gear so that I could get a non-synchro licence. It has been so long since I have driven a non-synchro box that I would need a very quiet road to practice before feeling confident again.
