You did not go far.

 

You're right , that particular spot is not far from home

Althou i did have a nice little ride around , about 25 - 30 miles.

I try and do that at least once a month throughout winter , just to keep everything turning.

Can't beat a nice sunset picture.

 

I try and stay off main roads in winter in any cars I care about. They tend not to salt the smaller roads much nowadays.

Me too , i'm very choosy when i take it out during winter months

This was the first day in the past 5 or 6 weekends when the roads were dry, and there hasnt been any salt down in my area so far this winter.

Althou the road in the pic was a bit damp/wet , it is a small dead end layby , the road i pulled off was nice and dry

I do remember taking my first ST205 out in heavy snow ,it was darn good fun.Shouldn't gloat at others misfortune but at the time there was something more than a little satisfying taking a 20 + year old car out doing easy 4 wheel drifts when there were loads of 'lesser' cars (think new RWD auto BMW's Mercs etc) abandoned everywhere throughout Kent ^_^

But yeah would make some great photo opportunities!

I have to confess that I have been seduced by the dark side and have bought a motorcycle in order to recapture my youth :lol:. L975 EPB has moved on to a new home, but a home that I know will take even better care of her. I've had fun with the Celica over the last seven years but I've gone back to my first love before I get too old to do it :blink:.

The last pic of my baby from me.

Thank you for the reminder Sherv! That was a great meet at Caffeine &  Machine near Stratford. I remember it was a very foggy start to the day, but it cleared up nicely. I have just checked back through Meetings forum, and it was 2019 - hard to believe how time flies! We had 35 club members I think who attended.

Here is my photo of  the same :D

Here is a link to the thread in Meetings forum, which has some nice photos posted in it. Pics start at the bottom of page 9

Don't do it :lol:. I'm trying to make a clean break, like an amicable divorce, my allegiance has been transferred :ninja:

...have bought a motorcycle...

 

Tell me you bought something stupidly quick like a GSX-R, or did you get something covered in chrome that you could polish every Sunday morning?

 

:D

Same bike as I owned 22 years ago. Yamaha Fazer 1000, the one with the R1 engine, so yes, quite stupidly quick mate :D
