I was always able to go back into the gear last used and re-shift it.
Colin: The shift rods are accessible, and should be able to do what you are speaking of. I am pretty sure the "skip" is in the remote gear change box.
Pretty sure I have told this story before as well: When I first started working on this Lynx, it would get stuck in third or fourth gear (can't remember for sure now). After doing a ton of work on it, during the road test it got stuck again. I managed to work it onto the hoist, and was ready to drain the transmission to pull the shifter when I noticed a cotter pin missing on a clevis pin on those remote rods. The pin would sneak down and get jammed on a neighboring pin. Cheap and easy fix: a 2¢ cotter pin.
