Depends where you live and the weather... I've been lucky down here and have gotten in a few drives by mid March the last two years.

When I lived in Vermont it was never before mid April, usually I had 4 feet of snow in front of the garage until then.

With all the snow this year, it may be mid April again

Last year's late march ride up to Saratoga was the earliest for me in a long time.
It's usually around tax day...

I'm in Clifton Park. Never ever have taken my car out since I bought it new before all traces of snow are gone AND we've had a few good rain storms to wash the salt off of the roads.

Mid April is typical. Depends on when the first good rain comes and washes the salt away.

In my case I would pull it forward...never backwards

Punxsutawney Phil is right and I can start driving mid-March.

Last year I think I was back on the road by mid-March. Other years I haven't been back driving the S till late April.

Myself, Im the lone wolf in being the latest. I'm never antsy about pulling the S out. Last year I think I waited until Memorial day. And Im always the first to go into storage last year it was the day I got home from Knapp. I drove it into the garage and their she still sits well not entirely correct it went to the body shop for some bumper paint evidenced here



and sat there a week.. Did 1800 miles all season and most of it was Knapp weekend did 1300 total that weekend.
