I drive an hour to work every day. It's an hour back as well (duh). From San Antonio to Austin and back every friggin day.


Needless to say, I do a lot of radio kareoke.

Texas drivers aren't bad at all. None of that cutting people off stuff. I mean, we don't play around. We either run you totally off the road or we don't even bother with you.

Driving is by far one of my favorite things do to...freedom...going on deserted roads just you and the road and speed nothing like the feeling, but if i drove over in the UK i think i would kill myself if i didn't get killed from a traffic accident.

Dang KRG, I know that drive from SA to Austin and back is bad...I feel for you. I-35 just sucks...

And I understand Bobins...long drives can be pretty bad, especially with no one to talk to but yourself.

I have a 2 hour drive to university from my house, but fortunately there isn't any traffic to contend with.
Driving is quite fun, but I'm glad I don't have to do it every day.

My car club had a 180 mile drive over the weekend. We enjoyed it.

Austin to some place north of San Antonio and back.

Triple digit cruising is nice. Was the first time I've ever overheated a set
of tires when I wasn't on the track

Ach, it's just because he had to leave Wales, and drive on some proper British roads, with "roundabouts", and "lampposts"
