Default Sunny and 17 Friday - Anyone driving?

I may be able to get out Friday and since it looks nice I wondered if anyone is planning a drive??

Although Sat doesn't look too bad either it looks like the last chances before the really nasty weather hits....

As we all know up here in the Great White North, good driving days can become become very rare this time of year. If you got one, I'd say go for it.

Forecast here on Saturday is +3C and flurries.

Have Fun!

Would love to but it seems everyone has their car stored already!!

Anyways will probably try and get out tomorrow afternoon for a bit or head out early Sat morning before the temps plummet

We keep the all Sports Cars parked indoors over the winter, but if we get some nice dry road days we will take them out for a quick drive. Today was a 'Snow Day' in Calgary. Two cars in the ditch on the way into the city this morning, we live just west of Calgary in the Foothills. We have a new 991.2 TTS Cab on its way, I suspect its first trip, from the dealer, to its new home might well be on the back of a Flatbed truck.

Hope you have a fun drive!

Cheers.

Definitely take it on a crawl down the DVP in the morning. Likely last chance this year. Hard to face forthcoming withdrawal. Looking forward at one more drive before likely storage (attempt) this weekend. Hope many get a chance to get out today.

South into the lake??

I am going to try and get out of downtown around noon and head towards Port Perry. Found some interesting roads out there last week

Rebuild is awesome. Have been pushing up the revs and will likely have the break in oil changed next week and then its full game on!! The sound gives me chills!! Thanks for asking

I just got my 964 back from Arizona for a full motor build and a complete suspension overhall.....had about three days of bliss. Just wow is all I can say. I am in heaven with the outcome.

Now I am doing an complete interior strip to get ready for paint.

I am so jealous as today is a gorgeous day.

Fresh oil in the 4.0 and beautiful weather. Going to take full advantage today of it today because I will start working on the skidoo next week and be ready for when the white stuff starts flying!

That would be too much like work! (Which is where I am at the moment) Thinking Niagara on the Lake, Pt. Dover and the North shore of Lake Erie for a change.
