Catching the leading wind through a narrow band


"Is there a narrow band to the north? Everything would lead one to say no! If there is one, then Groupe Bel has got a horn in. However, to get a cow, a Figaro, a tall Seb and a Kito through a mouse hole at the same time, they are all going to have to drive hard!
