Re: it's snowing
Found a few roads that aren't cleared. I wouldnt say it's like driving on a normal road, but definately so much more traction than a car. Managed a couple of sideways fun times, but it required some gunning a dipped clutch.

Re: it's snowing
Went up on Dartmoor Yesterday to find some snow. We didnt really find any though.
Did some lanes though.
And it was very pretty.
Chagford is one of our favorite places. Pint of local ale infront of a roaring fire.
I really love the Winter. Summer is over-rated!!

Jealous. Great pics.
Like Christmas snow is best enjoyed with the children. (Austrian Sauna's excepted!)

Re: it's snowing
First time we have snow since I bought the syncro and it's just damp and wet here in Chester.
And I'm moving house
Ah well, even more reason to plan next years ski/camping trip

Re: it's snowing
Just been sledding; hopefully good enough footage for a good little movie 
I want go out in the doka but I just filled it up with logs earlier in the week so a little too laden. Tried the Multivan for the first time in snow with the lSD fitted and winter Kuhmos... WOW. I'd have been stuck within a few feet of the house before, and today I just tore it up.
