Late Spring is more fun than early Spring.

Shortly after my last post in early April, there was an ice storm in Montreal and we lost power for 4 days due to downed power lines. The Civic was parked on the street and became covered in a layer of ice. Luckily, no large branches fell on it.

Since then, Spring has arrived for real. I haven't been to ICAR yet because the first Tuesday was cancelled due to rain. Still, I managed to get some track time at our racing school at Calabogie this past weekend (I will make a separate post about this, all went well!) and I'm looking forward to driving the Civic more. 

I also managed to get the M3 out of the barn, but I haven't replaced its battery yet (or registered it!) so it's just sitting outside near the barn for now. I look forward to driving it too!

Out of the barn

Other than that, as you can see from these photos, many people are now driving their summer vehicles and the weather is getting nicer. I can't wait to do some more track events!
