I haven't had the time to check out what's been happening lately so sorry for my absence. I hope to attend at least part of this event. I have soccer things I need to do at 3:30 but I should be able to come for most of the run.

2 weeks ago when it was near freezing and almost snowing I decided to put on my winters. I also did this as I had to drive to Edmonton the next week. It figures that as soon as I did this, it is sunny and 24. oh well, if it snows I'm safe....See you there.

Sidenote..I cruised steadily to Edm and back this week. I got 7.5 liters per 100 km doing about 125 kph steady on my winters with the odd blip up to 145. My city driving is somewhat higher averaging 9.5-10. I am pretty happy with that highway mileage on my JCW but something tells me that I might get a wee bit worse mileage on this minrun.

cheers,
