This weekend I’m driving up to Squamish, BC via the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

Located in Squamish is !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! who is, among other things, the builder of !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

Fellow Oppo Vicali recommended hitting them up for a local source of lights. I called them and they said come on up!

They also build custom cars for clients and create bespoke parts. Should be interesting! I get my 2017 bonus on the 15th, depending on the amount it could be a good summer for car parts!!

I drove up to Whistler once while in Vancouver on business many years ago. The Sea to Sky Highway is stunning.

This picture pretty well defines what I love about rally. Press on regardless!

RRR is awesome! A bit bummed I didnt get any good shots of the cars last year. Given the next round of CRC isnt until May, it’s likely the cars are at home.

Same, I love rally so much. I’d like to start getting involved from a volunteer aspect and see where I go from there

It really is. I don’t drive it enough to be honest. It is only about an hour and half from my front door to Squamish

Its an incredible highway, last time I used it (only time I’ve used it) I was too young to drive in Canada, but still, it’s mesmerizing

Being a passenger, it’s easier to look out the window at the scenery, so that’s not all bad!

Maybe I should go pro it or something. That being said, it is one of those things that a Gopro probably couldn’t capture well.

I’m a flatlander (Chicago) so mountains in general impress me, but that whole part of the US/Canada is gorgeous.

Yeah, I’d have to say that from Seattle to Whistler is probably one of the best and prettiest drives you could do in like 4 hours.

That left-rear tire has seen better days.

I just noticed that the rear tire is gone in addition to the half open hood.

The Sea to Sky is one of my favourite drives. Been back and forth to Squamish, Whistler, etc many many times. Even drove to Whistler with the wife just for coffee once. Incredibly fun highway, and incredibly scenic.

You’re in insurance so this probably doesn’t even need mentioning, but I would try to avoid the temptation to keep up with some of the lunatics doing a sustained 140-160. I’ve come across more than one fatal accident on that stretch of road, and it is sobering.

I just want to get into rallyX... a friend does it, and I’m just one hobby shy of being able to do it. Like, I’d have to give up one of my existing expensive hobbies, and I’m not quite willing to do that. My family can come in the boat with me (1), and mountain biking is how I stay sane and in shape all summer (2)... but yeah. I’ve been up to Team O’Neil a few times, and it’s just the best thing ever.

The other night, we took my car out on my road (a quiet dead end) and did some Scandi-flick practice, it was a blast. I just have to, you know, drive that car to work the next day also haha.
