Default Snow in Berkeley CA. Grinning from ear to ear as my TT...

slid around doing doughnuts this morning. I got off my night shift and raced for the hills above Berkeley and found the golf course parking lot still slushy and 33 degrees. Lots of sledding with esp on and off and whoooo what fun. I haven't done that sort of thing in years. What a difference esp made in the experience. Once it was off, I could really throw the end around.

I was a little worried about traction with my tires (non snows) but the S-03 pole positions did great! Went everywhere I wanted them too.

I was still giddy as I finally pulled up to my house. I grew up driving in Colorado but haven't lived there in awhile. I was always wondering what the TT would be like in snow but thought it might never happen b/c when we go skiing, we take the subaru. Still, very, very cool.

Default At least I got to give my car a somewhat proper washing this weekend. :)

...It was looking pretty nasty, so I took advantage of the 60+ degree weather we had Sunday. After having my TT look filthy for so long, it makes it look even better now.

Now, bring on the snow...This is getting ridiculous. We better have one of those February/March blizzards this year or I'm moving to Colorado.

Default Re: Looks like DC weather got swapped with yours. mid 60's this weekend.. drove around with windows

down after spending an hour putting on a new layer(s) of Zaino. Had to clay the front as it picked up quite a bit of grime.
