Featured Spring Has Arrived

Tjalon.
It's coming. Just wait and soon you will be out there doing the things that make you smile.

First morning for a long time when it felt mild, dry and even smelt a little bit like summer, I love this time of year.

 

what is it?

 

Looking at the brushes between the wheels and the spray bar at the front I’d say it’s a street sweeper. Quite what the relevance is,dunno.

 

I see - I also assumed that but thought it was something special for a US spring.

 

Maybe Tjalon will enlighten as to the relevance.

 

this is the usual portent of spring in my neck of the woods:

 

“Sport” version?

 

Is it to sweep up the grit?

 

I think what isn’t it is the question, it’s not a snowplow

I see - thanks for that. Interesting. Especially as we rareley get any snow here. We do get tractors spreading acres of mud all over the roads though. Or diesel.

 

I haven’t seen a Cavalier on the road for years, I had an SRI briefly as a company car 25 years ago whilst my Golf VR6 was on order, happy old days.

 

I went for two nice rides in the last week. It's spring.

Me too, got out on Friday and Saturday, was going to get today but time ran away with me and it didn’t happen.

 

I live in snow country.

Snow in the driveway and lot's of wet sand for 5 miles. Big melting snow banks.
So I rode the long way to the Finger Lakes.

great in summer though I suppose?

 

Yes. Not much traffic,many lakes and rivers and mountains and clean air and water. I get to ride around 7 or 8 months. I enjoy riding in the 40's and do ride in the 30's. I love the 50's,60's and 70's. Not too keen on 80's and 90's.
