MISTER Cruises… :)

[Mister]

Well, Just before the snow is gone….
Some people take advantage of the white stuff to ski, I just take out the Fiero and give it a good run on the snowy / Icy side roads in my area       

No, I'm not going too fast, but you do get a nice feel of excitement and liberty driving a bit "off-road". These little roads are lots of fun in the summer, and they provide a similar fun factor when they are plain white.



(rally navigation style)







A new component that I used this time is the GPS tracker on the laptop with voice guidance from the lovely Microsoft assistant and my (even lovelier) Co-Pilot.
Zooming in on the map gives you a timely notification of what's coming ahead       







Road side "frozen water falls"







Just 10m from the bank of the frozen Ottawa river.

Video 2 - "FLOP" the Fiero mirror gives up (or down) to road fatigue "LIVE"... LOL

Hi Mister!

You are very brave to go on that snowy roads alone... You know, the Fiero is not very good in the snow. Where was it? Hope it was not too far from the city. As I can see, you are discovering the "Belle Province".

Salut Mister

Tres beaux paysage. 

Pour JST, J ai roule pendant 12 ans l hiver avec une Fiero et ca va mieux qu un traction avant dans la neige.
En 1984,  je me suis fait plante par un paquet de voiture japonaise l ete mais l hiver venu ca ete ma revanche, jamais un japonais ne passait devant moi.  Apres a partir de 1994 j ai eu une V6 automaque l hiver jusqu a l annee
passee  et je l ai plus apprecier que la 4 cylindre de 1984. (j ai essaye de pas mettre d accent pour toi)

[Mister]

Merci a tous vos reponds (sans accent)
