I recall hearing about an operator jumping 3118 on the off road of a 28X on a Sunday morning crossing Center Ave. wasnt there to see but I believe it. |

The best spot to probably get a bus to jump at is coming down the hill on the 89 Garfield, I'm sure Eric and Dewberry can explain that one better than me. |

Yeah, right there in Garfield comming down North Aiken Ave. to Black St. It's a wonderful place because its a very steep hill with a few humps in it and if you get enough speed you could get a bus off the ground, and from past memories a few gillig advantages almost got air if they didnt they sure reached the maximum suspension travel, very fun ride on that 89, check it out. |
