I've had mine out about 5 or 6 times in the past couple of weeks, but tomorrow will be the first day driving it to work. The roads are salt free in my neck of the woods, and there are very few areas of melting snow messing up the roads, so I'm good to go now!

Too much salt/gravel still on the road for my liking. Need a few good rainfalls to clean everything up, hopefull the potholes will be filled in by then.

Cornwall is a disaster zone still... Too much run off / salt / pot-holes...

Also - it's for sale, anyone want to buy a sexy red Corvette?
