Yes, I hear you, "eek" is right. Taking the Harley out without gloves in the winter is "eek X 10." Did that once myself, and my fingers turned blue; as you said, very short ride. Hang in there. On Long Island the snow is beginning to melt. No driving for a while.

I feel your pain. I was planning on driving mine throughout the winter... short of snow filled days, but I had a misfortunate incident with this chair in the middle of the highway and now I have a hole in my car... I can't wait to get her fixed so I can drive it again.

Welcome to Canada eh? I only bought my new vette 6 weeks ago and I've only been able to drive it like 8 or 10 times since, and now winter has really arrived (-15 snow) and so she's tucked away till March or April.

Don't....think....I....can....take....it .....must....drive....vette

Oh well, polishing and cleaning will have to fulfill my vette needs for the next 3 months.

I have to say though, evben though i can't drive it, just opening the garage door and seeing that blue beauty sitting there puts a smile on my face every time.

Save the wave!

Well it's been a little cool here in LV this week, in the mid fifties, but I'll go out on a cruise for you in my Vette this weekend. I just wish it were a little warmer so I can take the targa top off and enjoy the sunshine.
