Tight stairs
#1
Many say that the Cimex is too big and awkward.

I say you need to get a set of Big Wheels and persevere.

This is the tightest and most acute set of stairs I have ever encountered.

Looking down from the top, the brown timber is the top of the wall dividing the stairs.

Going down to the return.

From the return to ground level.

To make things more difficult, this stairwell was narrower than most, and the angle of the tiled steps at the return left little room for error.

In fact, with one step, I had to hold the right side wheel in the air, over the edge and swing Big Yella to get it to go down onto the next step without touching the wall.

Oh yeah, a word of caution, when coming down tiled stairs, your shoes may be damp and can be very slippery. Wink

Practice, I believe, makes one near perfect. Big Grin

I don't regret my past, I just regret the times I've wasted with the wrong people.
Take me as I am, or watch me as I go.
I'll retire when I can no longer do what I love, or I no longer love what I can do.
Stop moving, start dying........
