: Long Time No See...!

I doubt anyone here remembers me, but here I am again!

Last time I was here my financial situation was crappy to say the least, I had to sell my beloved sled and life basically sucked at that time. I was forced to live with a 1972 Alpine 440 which really isn't the most exciting machine, or well it's pretty wiggly/unstable if you could call that exciting ;) However things changed for the better.. I got a decent job, no more financial trouble! I've been spending my spare time restoring/building and expanding my collection of old Volvos the past couple of years, but the cars that could give me some adrenaline are still a work in progress.

Anyway my girlfriend got me this for Christmas a couple of years ago :)

And 2 days ago, I finally couldn't resist the urge any more, and bought the real thing! Okay, not exactly the same but close enough.

Well, I just wanted to let you guys know you can expect me to be present again from now :)

I've been dreaming about one of these for a long time, and now I finally got one :)

The snow is not that good atm.. Temperatures are going up and down too much. One day it's melting, next day it's freezing again, turning the soft snow into hard ice. We had about half a meter of soft snow, but then this started and now we have maybe 30-40 cm of pretty hard snow left... Apparently this weekend it's going to be above freezing again, maybe we'll be lucky because I live in a cold spot so the temperatures might just stay good here :)
But a bit further up north (~200 km) things are supposedly really good. I need to get my trailer done, then I'll probably go up there with the MXZ and ride with some friends.
