Mr Kellar some how I missed your post before.
That sounds good, maybe we could end there have some food and then all head home.

1. Salomon Ponte 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.
Time: Leaving 7:30 AM. (This means be there, ready to go by 7:30. Aim to arrive early).
Route: Full route TBD, but leaving from East end Toronto (Scarborough) or further East (Pickering/Ajax area) and finishing in Quinte/Prince Edward County.
I will try and map out and run a route over the next weekend or two, including gas stations (I will just be making note of Petro Canadas, anything else will be up to you guys to figure out).

Salomon you won't have a decision from me till I see the route, hopefully after we figure out how long the route will be we can adjust that starting time.

Why start in Scarborough? Brampton area guys could meet up and start there, then meet everyone else in one or two other locations along the way.

Saturday because it's going to be too rushed if it's a Sunday...everyone will have to drive back home and get ready for work (or school) the next day. My first day of classes is that following Monday (Sept. 9) and I've got other stuff to take care of on the Sunday, including finishing moving stuff in Waterloo. And personally, I'm busy almost every other weekend in September, as well as every weekend after the Shootout in August. So, it would have to be October, otherwise...at least for me. As for the route, I'll have it done within a few weeks, but it'll be an early start because with the exception of a few people we'll all have at least a few hours drive home if not longer, not to mention people want to bbq/go to Sandbanks/etc., so that needs to start at a reasonable time. If people want to meet up elsewhere and start earlier, that's fine, but I'm going to set a start location and a start time based on the route (and its length) and it will be up to everyone else to get there. I am perfectly content to spend a day driving by myself, I do it as often as time allows. Btw...my starting time will not be later than 8am, whether the route is an hour or 5 hours. Most car clubs that do cruises (BMW clubs, Mazda, etc.) are ON THE ROAD by 7. Consider yourself lucky you get to sleep in

Sandbanks is like the Caribbean of Ontario. As long as I'm running I'm down, BUT, I might be at a stupid annual business practice meeting. I'll double check the dates. No other possible dates before September?

So here's my question...as I have it planned out now, it would probably be a 6-7+ hour drive from Toronto and going East going through all sorts of country roads and ending at Sandbanks. Personally, I'm fine with this but it may be longer than some of you guys want.
If you guys think it's too long, I will make it a cruise out in strictly the East side (Quinte area and further North of there - Madoc, Tweed, etc.) that will still last a good number of hours and still end at Sandbanks. That being said, everyone will still need to get out that way anyways, so it may just be nicer to do it via country roads as I have planned now.
Let me know what you guys think.

Can we get to the sandbanks sooner than that? Of course, then we'd have to do it where everyone is responsible for getting out to (probably) the Cobourg area and then we go from there, spend ~4 hours cruising and get to Sandbanks for lunch time. I'd still want to start the cruise by 8, otherwise there will be no getting to Sandbanks early, just means everyone not near there needs to suck it up and get up early!

I would love to actually visit the Sandbanks for a solid 3-4 days. Camp out sort of thing.

Blocked at work. Alright. New plan. Drive will start in Cobourg at the gas station RIGHT OFF the 401 at Exit 472 (Cobourg/Gores Landing). The address is "490 White Street Cobourg, Ontario" See store details here. They have 94 there. From there we will set out at 8am. I will have to drive out and figure out a route, but the goal will be to be at Sandbanks BY 1pm latest, including another stop for gas during the drive. Is everyone agreeable to this?

County has lots of road to travel on. IIRC Eric K and Ryan mapped it up last time.
I could assist in choosing the route over a beer. I'm sure we could find the time one evening while at the SO.
