Default Cool CruZn'

Went for a super drive this afternoon and ended up travelling along some country backroads and loved it.Also along a waterfront where many hot rods hang. Sunny day for a change. Anyways,just wondering where you guys like to take your Z . City,busy but lots of looks or country,open space or curvy motorcycle routes or ?? Sometimes I just don't no where to go! If I have sort of a plan it seems a bit more fun and rewarding. Living in a big populated place you don't really want to waste too much time sitting in traffic. So,what's your fave drives?

I would settle for "once around the block". Between snow, salt and temps!

I'm with Quick Silver on this one...
I've been rolling my car a foot or so every now and then to keep the tires from flat spotting as it sits in my garage for the winter. It snowed here right after Thanksgiving and my car hasn't been started since then.

I'm getting pretty antsy for a ride!

Car is put away for the winter here in Michigan.
In the summer months my favorite cruise is what I call "circle the thumb". It's a great ride north along the coast of Lake Huron. Back south to metro Detroit through farm country.
15 degrees with snow showers..........cold front moving in tonight!
Can't wait until spring!
