Woke up this morning to find my 'normal' car was covered in frost and the road iced up, but the sun was out.
So I had a choice, defrost or get the three wheeler out of the garage to get to work.... I spent a little over 25 milliseconds to make my mind up!
Fantastic ride in, had a little bit rear wheel slide down my road as it was more slipped than I'd realised, we had some light rain which had turned to ice. I was wrapped up with four layers and other than cold hands ( my gloves are not winters ones) it was a great ride. One of the great things about the three wheeler is simply how much you can see, sunlight on frost first thing in the morning is a great experience in the open air.
Lunch time was glorious, a trip to get petrol from a local garage and some light shopping was carried out in full sunshine, I only had a shirt and suit jacket on, but was actually hot!
The journey home was not as cold as the morning, and there is something surreal about driving the three wheeler at night, I'm almost going to miss driving home in the dark when the days get longer. After a quick business meeting (ok a swift half) I headed to the local curry house to pick up a take away For
who has a sore tooth! Had some drizzle on the last few miles (curry safely covered up), which sort of added to the magic of the day.
So, 3W as a daily driver. Not sure about every day, I wouldn't take it if it was pouring down or likely to. Cold is not a deterrent, more than a little ice is.
Every time I drive the car, I find myself wanting to jump straight back in!
