apparently the winter season has officially started.

I bet it's rather colder than the UK

Did I mention I don't do

[nick69]

2 weeks ago we got down to -41c wind chill (-35c straight).

I didny do cold before but I dont mind it now (not -40c though) thats just silly!! Heating was up nobody went out. I put a glass of juice outside at 10am that weekend and it had frozen by 10:08!!

That ain't cold.....................it's Artic

My comfort zone stops at 15c, anything below 4c and my body struggles

[nick69]

People out here do skinny dip in the snow but not even they dared to do it then.
-13 to -20c is the average temps for winter. Once youve got all the kit on you dont notice the cold.

Just remember Feet, Hands and Head!!

We can't cope with 2 inches of snow, let alone several feet..

Yeah I did, proper Bandit one too, well chuffed but I also got a Merc Cyclone from the same bloke.

Fjeldy, Believe it or not people do actually use them (well not nice ones like that) in the country. We dont live in a built up area and are 10 mins drive to our neighbour.

Hey Art, loving it although this year has been a struggle but next year should be much better.
Hows you and yours?

[Roadkill]

awesome mate , what's it like ?   do you have any pics ?    Steve and me are jealous as hell

[nick69]

I had pics on my old laptop but it was nicked from my truck a couple of months ago. I think ive still got the sale pics the bloke used ill have a hunt for em.
He said it was mint but needed some trim bits and a couple of decals replacing. Running gear and motor have been fully detailed but it also has Black Leather which is nice, he had the vinyl replaced and it really makes a difference.
Now the Cyclone is super nice, both are tucked up under cover in the barn atm.
I hear work is coming on well on Steves Bullnose?

[cuban pete]

The bully is on the back burner at the second , but the firstgen is up at rockys having the full monty body job . it's going to be a lovely car and gator has a pretty clear idea on how he wants it to look .

would be great to see some pics of the trans am , if you find them just post them up

 hopefully we should get an answer from the cic this spring , then with any luck it's sell some stuff and over to your side of the pond . can't wait
