Just got back from Whistler Blackomb last night, and wake up morning with a thin dusting of snow on the truck. I love it! Hope we see more, actually. Hitting closing day at Baker this weekend, and then Mt. Hood in the next few weeks

Man.... I'm glad someone is enjoying this. Drove up to Evt this morning and saw snow on the roofs of the homes along I-5. Even though there wasn't anything on the road I just about lost it in my frustration w/ this weather. Spoke to my brother in NYC and he said they've got 70 degree weather, spoke to my buddy who was just got back from Arizona and he said it was 90 down there. Seems like everyone else around the nation is enjoying decent weather.

Seattle seems to be home of the "green movement." They just haven't figured out what it means to mess with Mother Nature, and so she's striking back.

Other than the Northeast, everyone else seems to be having a "normal" spring. It's just the NE and the NW that are experiencing "demented" weather.

+1 to hating on the weather...tried to make an autoX event near Mt. St. Helens....

Saturday morning around 5am:


Saturday morning around 6am (after a bump and some ice in the road):


here's a pic of what I hit (I had already turned the Z around)


**sorry for the bad pics...it was still dark out, so the camera didn't like it.

So, does anyone have a Front Bumper for '03-'05 in black??

i had a little spin out the other night with my bmw (daily driver). i hit black ice coming down a steep hill. nothing serious just a 360* and back on the road. i was licky the road was wide and no cars were on it so i could avoid the curb. the freaking wether has been going nuts. I hate it, and i grew up in a contry where snows like tons and retains it for 3-4 month. however, here is awkward 5min sun, 10 min snow, 15 min hail and so on. the weather changes intermittently.

A couple weeks ago, I drove through 1/2 sun, 1/2 clouds, with snow, and lightning.
