scannon Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 As the weather is sunny and approaching 50F I decided to take the Caterham out for our last blat of the year today. There is snow predicted for tomorrow and Christmas day and highs in the low 30s for the rest of the year. I ran a couple of errands and then took the long way home. Nothing spectacular but I did find a few places to bring the boost up and exercise the gears and fling it around a few corners. I got a few strange looks from people and some waves and thumbs up. Not a bad last blat of the year. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all the good people on this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaskossie Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 lancylad, Are you talkin' centigrade, or fahrenheit? We only speak fahrenheit up here, so I have to think twice (and run a rough conversion in my head) before proceeding to either be amazed, or to wonder what's the big deal....

lancylad Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Hi Skip. That would be centigrade... I was out in minus 5 on Saturday with the snow falling... got some pretty weird looks from the rest of the traffic.. also a great deal of thumbs up.
