I swear I did....but it's been cold and/or snowing for the last 413 years and I can't even remember what it's like to drive one.

Is it spring yet? sigh.......

When I was in VA for New Years, Kelly even stood ME up on dinner and showing off his car. To stand someone up with the importance of myself, you know it must be serious. I really feel sorry for him. Since GA has also turned into a snow state this year (3 days so far which normally equals 3 decades for us), I feel your pain. Hang in there :)

We will be driving Three Sisters in Kerrville, TX this weekend, and the weather looks great! Meet us there! :D

"The Three Sisters" or " The Hundred Mile Loop" (RR335, RR336, & RR337) are without a doubt the best motorcycle roads to be found in the Hill Country of Texas. These are the roads everyone wants to ride when they visit the Texas Hill Country. Again I caution, if you are a new rider or are a cautious type, then you DO NOT belong on these three roads. They follow canyons and climb over jagged, steep and crumbling hills. They have many tight twisty curves with shear drop offs and not much in the way of guard rails. In one section about 15 miles long, there are around 65 curves. If you are an experienced rider, then this is the ride for you. If you like scenic panoramic views, bring your camera, take this ride and hold on!

My hyacinth by the door are up maybe a half an inch... the rest of my yard is still under 6 inches of snow. We have hope for next week, high 40s.

I don't know if I could handle east coast winters?

Looking forward to Saturday, heading up to Santa Anita Park to meet up with the SoCal Club to watch the horse races.

The good news is San Diego to Los Angeles and back is about 300 miles seat time for me :D

I hate snow, we have had very little this winter so this has been the first time in many years I've driven all year.
I feel for all that can't drive... Should be over soon. Hang in there! :drive:

I love the twisted sisters, great drive! I just got my bumper painted from the last time I went out there. The truckers like to drag one tire on the side to spray cars with rocks that try to pass them. I've got to wait about 3 weeks to put the 3M covering on to go at it again.

I used to drive a Viper also.

Too much snow and cold weather since Mid November. It was -10 degrees on Tuesday morning with a high temp around +1 degree.

:grumble:

Pain felt here too. I love to ski, and like winter, but not being able to play with my snake (the viper that is) for these cold snowy months is painful.

I bought a 2011 Cobra GT500 as a xmas present for myself, I got 100 miles on it the day I got it, next day we got snow and it's been snuggled up against the viper since. My poor neglected snakes.

Sure am glad I live here in FL ! Get to drive year round. I don't know how you tolerate all that snow and cold crap. If it's under 70'F I'm starting to feel a chill :D
