Goodbye Old Friend, Hello New Honda Fit!

I'll start off by saying, 1986 was a good year for maroon, somehow, I don't think 2009 will be!
Well last week was a bit of an exciting one! On Tuesday, I picked up our brand new 2009 Honda Fit, swanky! Very awesome car! It's pretty much been snowing all week since getting it, and so has been a blast to drive! I'm sure the Pirelli snow Tires help with that department, but hey, fun's fun!
On Friday, the week ended on a bit of a sad note. We'd say our final goodbye to the trusty old steed that was our Honda Accord. Now at nearly 23 years old (its was a 1986 model) it had a good life, but things were adding up, and the poor guy had to be put out of its misery. We took the metaphorical walk in the woods to the junk yard, you know, the; "hey boy, let's go hunting" and only one of us returned. It was sad, but I know that it will some day again be put to good use, somewhere, somehow. At least I remembered to get out all the cassette tapes!
Farewell old friend

Mooney's Bay part Deux

The final race of the Eastern Series would once again this year be at Mooney's bay in Ottawa. I'm still on injury reserve, so I'd sit this one out and take pics with the Nikon. A bit of snow on the ground would make it interesting, temps just above freezing.
It ended up being a bit faster than expected, in some spots.. but a fun race to watch.
Can't say too much else other than Im looking forward to getting back on the bike already, and its only December.. long ways to go! Oh well, I'll get the skis out and rip it up for a few months!
Anyways, at the very least, I'll be able to watch the live feeds online of the races in Europe now!
yeee haw!
