Sometimes the real challenge is to manage to enjoy the landscape while feeling in complete control of your car, with the tyres perfectly gripping the road. At times, especially in the coldest season, the most unconventional approach is to slow the pace and rediscover all the great beauty around you, perhaps leaving the city to seek adventure in the snow-muffled lands beyond. Rethinking your way of driving but without lessening the pleasure of being behind the wheel.
