Easter time is a perfect time to visit, since most tourists get to attend the Merrie Monarch Hula Festival. This is an annually cultural event held in Hilo region of the Big Island, which begins on Easter Sunday and held for a week. Another annual festival is Made In Hawaii; this is a celebration of variety products and held in August.
In Finland, Sweden, Germany, the Netherlands and Denmark (for a period of three years commencing November 24, 2008), trucks with trailers are allowed to be 25.25 m (82.8 ft)long. Elsewhere in the European Union, the limit is 18.75 m (61.5 ft) (Norway (19.5 m or 64 ft). The trucks are of a cab-over-engine design, that is with a flat front, a high floor about 1.2 m (3.9 ft) above ground with the engine below. The Scandinavian countries are less densely populated than the rest of the EU countries and distances, especially in Finland and Sweden, are vast. Until the late 1960s, vehicle length was unlimited, giving rise to long vehicles to handle goods cost effectively. As traffic increased, lengths became more of a concern and they were limited, albeit at a more generous level than in the rest of Europe. In the United Kingdom in 2009, a two year desk study of Longer Heavier Vehicles (LHVs) including options up to 11-axle, 34 m long, 82 tonne combinations, ruled out all road train type vehicles for the foreseeable future. Sweden is currently (2010) performing tests on log hauling trucks, weighing up to 90 tonnes and measuring 30 meters and haulers for two 40 ft containers, measuring 32 meters in total.
On October 19, 2000, Doug Gould set the first of his records at Kalgoorlie, Western Australia, when a roadtrain made up of 79 trailers, measuring 1,018.2 m (3,341 ft) and weighing 1,072.3 t (2,364,000 lb), was pulled by a Kenworth C501T driven by Steven Matthews a distance of 8 km.
The fortunes of Amos Lincoln would begin to change on October 21, 1966 at New York’s famous Garden when he dropped a ten round duke to Johnny Persol. Amos came back with two quick wins but then he was again taken out again by Jimmy Fletcher. Amos was then brought over to Germany where he was stopped by Karl Mildenberger. Lincoln had now fallen dramatically in the ratings. He continued to tumble as Thad Spencer was finally able to beat Amos. ” Big Train ” finally got back in the win column with a points call over rugged Joey Orbillo in Los Angeles. Amos returned to Los Angeles to meet Buster Mathis who was on the comeback trail after a loss to ” Smokin ” Joe Frazier. In a bout the featured some odd scorecards, Mathis was awarded a split decision. One judge had it 11-0 for Buster. Another had it 9-1 for Mathis. The third judge had it 5-4 for Amos. Go figure…
