Took the Golf to Granada for skiing in the Sierra Nevada, good conditions but very windy. If you get the chance the road from Granada to Sierra Nevada is something else, think opening of the Italian Job but 10% better. Roll on Thursday as going to Jerez for the F1 testing, only blow is that Alonso is there which means half of Andalusia will be there as welll.....

Removed all these liitle bristles off my Vredestein Wintrac 3's with a little weekend road trip to Pitlochry. Small amount of snow but nothing like you English are getting. Jealous much...  :rolleye:

Sold them for $80usd, I think probably near 55 to 60 euros. Not sure of the exchange rate.

Today I installed a new radiator, swapped my old forge and tubes for my new forge and tubes. Now I'm selling the old set-up for maybe $400 to $450. Not sure what price would be proper for it yet.

been up there...amazing mountain.  unfortunately i was only driving a rental with the family onboard, but incredible road, fantastic scenery and mentalist pushbikers freewheeling down the mountain.  oh...and this was the first and only time i have seen a veyron in the flesh chasing up the mountiain...incredible.

Cleaned all the salt off this morning, and froze my nuts off drying him with his new Turtle Waffle cloth, which is better than the Megs Water magnet actually.

Then went for as cautions spin, lot the front wheels on a bit of ice, and managed to keep it on the road - just!  :driver:

Then saw a lovely 1970's Scirocco Storm in Gold with cream leather. Beautiful car.
