Thanks Lucian!!

We need to figure out time now! What time will we all be meeting at Lucian's meeting spot and then we can work back from there to figure out our 401/403 meeting spot.

Mike.....ALL women are a waste of time

403 and Dundas there is a Timmies. It has a fairly big lot so we could meet there.

k that sounds good to me, as soon as we figure out what time we want to be around brantford we can figure out what time we should meet at Tim's meeting spot. I don't know if anyone wants to meet up farther north, I will probably take Mississaga road to Erin Mills to the 403 then hop off at dundas to meet everyone.

I'll be starting from the Brampton area with that crew. Bryan, text me with where and when.

Ok sounds good brother!

Im enormously stupid... Ryan got asking me about the weekend and I realized, I work this weekend I'm sorry guys. Got me weekends mixed up

FAIL.

LOL Red!

Ok so anyone else meeting up with me and then driving to Tim's meet spot? Alex?

Where/when are you guys meeting?

403 and Dundas there is a Timmies

We need to figure out what time we all want to meet at brantford before heading to the track, before we can decide what time to met at timmies. Track iirc opens at 11am.

Ill be meeting in Brampton. Im sure if I show up in the WS6 Its cool right

LOL I guess so

I'm sure it will be cooler than showing up in a Volvo.... sigh

What volvo you have!?

so you guys are going from Mississauga to Brantford? That is almost 40 mins west of Cayuga Maybe we meet somewhere in the middle like Burlington or Ancaster.

how many are actually able to make it?

What you guys need to figure out is a route through the niagra escarpment. I know some amazing roads out here similar to the forks of the credit. Lower baseline road from Mississauga to oakville is nice. There have to be some really great roads through there. I went on a cruise one day up through rattle snake point but i dont remember the route

Pretty well known, but here's the 'ring in Halton

http://maps.google.ca/maps/ms?msa=0&msid=104766356332881493255.00044cfb565ea3350da57

Something like that......

we could do the ring and stop in ancaster and then go to cayuga, that would be fun! Instead of going to brantford, then we can just go south to Cayuga from ancaster.

Yeah that sounds good.

We need to figure out time lines for meeting spots.

Our second meeting spot after mississauga will be 975 Plains Rd E. I am looking at google maps and I can see an ikea just past the parking lot. This is right off the highway for us coming from the GTA with a big parking lot so that will be good and is right before the start of the ring.

coordinates 43.326489,-79.828123

"Our second meeting spot after mississauga will be 975 Plains Rd E. I am looking at google maps and I can see an ikea just past the parking lot."

Isnt that south of the ring? If you get off at Brant street there is a costco right there. Although i think i might be busy unless we meet early. What time are you planning to meet? Track opens at 11?

it is just south of the ring, but there is no exit on king rd which is where the ring starts

Are you guys just planning on doing the quarter? Or are you doing lapping?

I don't think they have lapping on test and tune days. I was hoping to do some lapping though, I might do the quarter once or twice, don't plan on launching though.

shoot, i think you are correct. What a bummer. Quarter it is

Okay, seems like im able to come but with my DD.

So uhh, dont go fast - my civic can only take so much

BTW, Bryan/Deep - you guys want to meet up somewhere in brampton and we'll head down together?

yeah I think that is a good idea, somewhere along mississaga road so I don't have to go east to go west again.

joe, also add alex to that list

I'll be coming from Niagara and wouldn't mind catching up with the group to cruise to Cayuga.

Not sure if anyone from these parts will be heading out, so I might be flying solo.

I will probably be going also, but not planning on joining the "cruise", just meet at the track....

Alrighty, so I thought up of 2 places we can meet in Brantford. The reason I picked these 2 locations, is they're both on the westside of the city, meaning they're both in the direction we have to go. Both are close to the city limits, reducing the amount of BS lights and idiot Sunday drivers to deal with that could potentially split the group into pieces like it did during the '09 Invasion.

Now, on to the locations:

1.D'Aubigny Creek Park. This is a small industrial as well as residential place, which has a few soccer fields, as well as a few baseball fields. This is usually where the city's Canada Day fireworks and celebrations are held, so there should be more than enough room for everybody. There is a Sobey's nearby, as well as a Timmies and whatnot 2 minutes away.

To get here without getting lost through the city is easy, take the 403 to Rest Acres Road. Turn South on to Rest Acres (towards Brantford/Simcoe) then turn East (left) on Colborne Street and follow that virtually to the place. From the highway, it should take about 10-15 minutes. Or you can go through the city, if you take the Wayne Gretzky exit from the 403, then turn South and drive to Colborne again, turn West (right) and follow that through our sorry-ass downtown until you eventually go through about 15 lights and make it there.

2.Brantford & District Civic Center. It's on Market Street, right next to the Brantford Casino. There is a bit of area around there too, including a new plaza that was built with a bunch of parking. Here we have a Timmies, a Wendy's, a supermarket (FreshCo maybe?), LCBO, Little Ceasar's, etc. It's also relatively easy to get to, it's about a 3-5 minute drive from the first location I posted.



Now those are 2 locations I think would be good for us, again, taking into consideration a quick getaway route towards Cayuga. The backroads to Cayuga through the Reserve and out should be smooth sailing. If anybody has any better ideas, feel free to add. As for everybody else, pick where you guys would like to meet, or I can make the choice

So you guys coming from the west side can meet up in Brantford as well as anyone else that doesn't want to join the other route we have going. I will continue to repeat myself in saying that we need to figure out what time we are aiming to get to Cayuga!!!!

How about times what time are we meeting up?

is your car going to be running Ruben? I would like to be there for 11 if possible. Maybe we meet up around 10ish? Anyone know how long the cruise is? I need time when i get there to swap my tires.

Tim, how long do you think it will take to do "the ring"?

it's 25 mins from Dundas and 403 to where we are starting the ring.

Lets get there at open. I need to leave by 2pm.

Yea my car is going to be running sat im going to try to get it tuned early sunday morning.
