Re: Winter Driving Techniques / Stories

Ease up on clutch first until it starts to grab THEN start to add a bit of throttle and progress with it until you've completely engaged the clutch. Don't do it to slow or you'll eventually smoke the clutch, but don't do it to fast or you'll stall. Practice makes perfect, because it's all in the coordination between your left and right feet. If your stopped on a hill, when you are ready to move use your hand brake to keep you from rolling back until you begin to move forward.
