Drove It!

No, not the GT - it's still in the paint shop. :frown:

But Friday, I drove the roadster from Clarksville to Gallatin to help hang pictures, towel racks, etc. at our son and daughter-in-law's new house. Foggy, cool morning, so I'd imagine the B felt right at home! Spent the night there, then got up Saturday morning to drive down to Murfreesboro for a meeting. Still cool, so the top was up. But after the meeting, dropped the top and drove back to Clarksville. In all, about 200 miles, and the B ran perfectly. As I posted in the "Spotted" section, there was an Iris Blue Bugeye in Murfreesboro, but was ahead of me at a traffic light, and went straight when I turned. So I didn't get to see much more than the left rear corner. Looked good, though!

Depending on the honey-do's this afternoon, may have to take the B out for another run. (Probably will, anyway!) :driving:

I drove my MGB to work today. It's out in the lot right now next to three Miatas and a Z3.

Drove it yesterday too (*after* church) :angel2:

Tomorrow is supposed to be 78 F so I'm sure it'll be out again.

I just had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Cheesburgers sound good but I rather starve than eat bug sauce.:friendly_wink:

Glad you got out, Mickey -- though I was expecting this to be a GT drive post!

No MGB driving for me this weekend, still waiting on carbs from Hap and a few other jobs I need to get to. Besides, I was in some spots over the last 4 days that were not too MGB friendly (though a Land Rover would have worked fine). Extra points if you can find my truck and tent... :encouragement:

Hopefully, it won't be long before the GT is back home and I can put all the trim/bumpers/lights back on and get it on the road! Stay tuned...
