Ladybirds
When I went to work at funfairs at the age of 19, the very first ride
that I built up with a colleque was the Ladybirds.

The original ride has 4 gondolas and 3 hills.
I tried that at first but 4 hills is much easier to make with legos.
The problem with 4 gondolas and 4 hills is that every gondola
glimbs uphill at the same time and that is hard for the motor.
