Ya, the down side with sleds is if the winter sucks as far as snow fall then your not only depressed cause your car is in storage, but now also because there isn't enough snow for running the sleds.

Wow , way to find the downside.
I was soooo unhappy yesterday ripping around and crotch rocket speeds and listening to my engine rev.
I guess you are just a winter person or you aren't. I guess that's why Florida is almost full.

Downside?? Just stating a fact. Now this year, it has been amazing for sledders. I have quite a few friends with sleds and in the last 5 years, they have spent more time complaining about lack of snow then actually riding their sleds. Sure, they are A LOT of fun when there's good snow. But, the down side with good snow for sledders means longer wait for me to get out my car.

Re: WINTER GO AWAY!!

Roads were nice and clean today and no melting going on cause it was like 9 degrees, so I brought my car home from storage. Won't spend much time on the streets just yet as there will me a few more snow events. Just wanted to get it home to take care of a couple things before driving season starts. Glad she's home................

Re: WINTER GO AWAY!!

Ya. I was mainly waiting for the streets to be clear of salt and wet from melting snow. The streets right now are quite clean, though the temp on Saturday was only 9, so all the melted snow was quite frozen. Got the car home clean. We have a chance for some more snow tomorrow so I won't be driving the car. It will give me a chance to take care of a couple items on the car before had. Yesterday I installed a new CD dash unit. Just glad to walk into my garage and see her sitting there. Can't wait to drive with the T-tops off!
