Out of Hibernation for 2019

It's been a long 4 months since I put Bumblestook under wraps for the winter and it felt great to put on her summer tires and let her warm up a bit again.

First start up of 2019 - 3-24-2019
I got a chance to install her new Antigravity ATX-30 5lb battery. It's a bit bigger than the Deka battery I had on previous years but weighs half as much. I was a little concerned when I first put it in because I thought it might be too wide but it actually fits perfectly between the holes where the J-hooks go for the tie down.

Unfortunately, I was racing Kay so I didn't have the time to actually go take her out for a proper drive. She could also use a proper cleaning since I forgot that I had to put her away early last year because of the early snow/salt. It doesn't matter though. I'm just really happy she's out from under the covers and is ready to run hard again this season.
