Default Out for a drive

Sunny day ,50 degrees ,the wife and I had to get the GS out for a drive . We drove about 50 miles and had a great lunch at the Chop House in Madison Ga.. If you are ever in the area it is a great place to have lunch or dinner ! While parking a nice lady and her husband came up and she wanted to look at my vette . She loved the car and stated her husband had had one several years ago . She said she was dying for one but that her Husband had told her the ride was very rough and that she wouldn't like it . They were driving a new jeep by the way . I quickly told her that if she got a C6 or a C7 the ride ,handling and power were unbelievable . Her husband just smiled and gave me the thumbs up. I think there may be a vette in there future !

Just got back myself, felt great, tomorrow in the 50s so one more ride... I must behave as any acceleration caused the tires to break loose though

Default Christmas day ride

Took the GS out yesterday and just rode around and enjoyed the sun and warm (for Dec 25) temps. When we got back home at 5:00 I looked at the odometer and we had travelled 100 miles! That's rare for our climate on Dec 25th. It was a great gift on Christmas day!

Sunny and 50 degrees today in Maryland also. Got about 40 miles in on the GS . . . and 40 on the bike. Great Christmas break. Not the most productive day - but worth it !!!
