Once upon a time - feels like a lifetime ago ππ€·π»ββοΈ
Might be a bit harder to find frozen lakes if the required size nowadays but I have admittedly also not looked that hard recently (kids and family keeping me sufficiently occupied). Fishing on ice is also a possibility , albeit a very cold one π£ π₯Ά
Once upon a time in the East - driving on ice or what's Santa's favorite? (and given recent discussions, Jaguar features, too) βοΈβοΈβοΈ
As some of you might know I have spent some years further East on an expat assignment prior to 2022. This also included things to do with cars. The post is about cars, driving and Santa only, not about politics. Those members from the Northern climes or t...
Where was my invitation ????? Hmmm, the mail here must be slow :(
My fave driving is in the wet / snow. Enjoy the Car Control Clinic my friend, and catch some delicious fish too!

Snow - for me - is, Skiingβ£οΈπ€©
But it musst be fun driving on Snow and Ice I assumeβ¦ ππ» Thanks for the interesting post and pics! ππ»
It definitely is - youβd enjoy it for sure π
Snow is the easier if the two, ice is a tad more visceral in my experience πβοΈ

I would have to drive it around 5.000 km to the then home and then another 2.000 plus to the current one and itβs many things but not fast π Yes, it was a parachute albeit unnecessary for this application as it never reached the speeds you would need to d...
Thereβs that for sure ππ»
Letβs hope the situation normalizes again at some point π€π»
A fascinating, informative -- and entertaining -- read, KMII !
Given the limited ambit of my own driving (and beard-growing) skills, I imagine I shan't be similarly drilling or accelerating over cracked ice sheets any time soon : ) So thank you for the enjoyable vicarious experience !
Was quite happy snapping that shot πππ»π π»
The sleights had heated toilets inside π
Bell & Ross latest release. BR-05 SKELETON ARCTIC BLUE. For driving on ice fans??

Brings back memoriesβ¦
Need to look for the pictures. But when I was there we actually drove onto a glacier in a big standard Toyota Yaris - and there weee five of us inside (donβt be gentle, itβs a rental) ππ€·π»ββοΈ
Impressive post and activity.
I didn't realise that driving on ice could be a delightful hobby!
Well, that depends on how close the ice isβ¦
For many years ice racing was a very popular sport in France - called the Andros Trophy βοΈ Not sure if it is still as popular but it seems to still be going on. Picture from: Bruno Bade ...
