Default Come on rain!

It has been like 13 below wind chill all week...but this is Missouri, so they are calling for 62 degrees by Sunday! If we can only get some rain to wash of the streets I can get the Cobra out.

I don't have the heater...but I have an electric seat overlay for the wife. (think electric vest on the motorcycle) I planned ahead enough to lay in some winter fat so I should be fine. Besides, nothing warms my heart quite like driving the Cobra. Anyone else driving this month?

I feel your pain. Way to much salt and sand on the roads here in Virginia for my comfort. Spring can't get here soon enough.'

Best Regards,
Byron

It was suppose to be 50 today, yeah right it was like 42 with no sun yada yada yada. The weatherman always exaggerate the temperature and I knew it was to good to be true. The Cobra sits in hibernation still. WINTER SUCKS!!

My Unique is gonna stay in the garage here in PA. until the spring rains wash all the salt and grime off the roads. I'll also polish and wax it before it's first drive of the season.

Close enough to decent weather for me to drive it today...mid 50's. Wife still had too much sense to go with me. It started right up, and that cool air does make my engine happy!
