I want to go but I don't think I will have a vehicle just can't afford it. Who wants a tag along? Ryan(s)? Randy, Peter?
I'm looking to camp or something cheap. I will only have about $300 for the trip.

I'm looking to camp or something cheap. I will only have about $300 for the trip. Thats way more then enough. Hitch a ride and give a little gas money ($50ish). Camping is near free, rest is booze, cigarettes and food. The US is CHEAP for all these things. Trust me, $300 will last you.

No, just show up at the plantation with us Randy, they will let you camp there. They were pretty cool about it last year considering we rented out the whole damned place. Edit: Would have offered Adam, but Sam's coming with me and I don't have back seats

Well looks like I have a couple options maybe. So Ryan W or Randy I will go with one of you guys, seeing as your coming from the Kawarthas we'll probably jaunt down to meet up with everyone at Eastons at port hope or the 115.
As far as campsites are concerned, if the owners of the plantation are willing to we could ask them if we could pitch a couple tents, they had no problem with it last year and it was cheap, I wouldn't worry about reserving anything, I never reserved anything last year. There is always somewhere to crash.
Randy if you want me to call the plantation and find out I can do that, I just need to be able to remember to do so.

I'm giving some serious consideration to going.

Ya I definately want to be in a "caravan". What time do you guys leave on Friday?
Adam, are you still planning on coming down with me? Because a friend of mine might want to ride down with me, not sure... O ya and I never called the Plantation to ask about camping out on their lawn.
When do most guys come back?
My car doesn't like extended highway driving in hot weather apparently, I might need a new rad this week before I make the drive. stupid front mount...

Don't have an exact time in mind yet, waiting to hear back from Paul. I am also having issues with the head gasket in the wife's Cavalier, so not sure yet what vehicle we are taking...but would also feel better as part of a caravan.
I am thinking perhaps 10:00am is being on the US side of the border??
As for coming back, not sure about everyone else, but I will be leaving there Monday morning..

Well all, after getting my car together and driving it to Ottawa/Pontiac (Quebec) and back, she's not ready for the shootout.
BAHHHH!!!!! I can't risk the car, a lot of drivetrain noise I won't have time to fix.
As for the T-shirts, I am still going to have them made, and Randy/Ziggy, I will ship them to you at no additional cost.
Anyone else will have to have them shipped.

I think Randy is still going to the shootout as far as I know, so you could probably ship mine with Randy's, and he could bring them to me. Would save a couple bucks, and time is running out also. Leaving for the s/o in 4 days...

Yeah, they were supposed to be ready by Thursday, so I would not have them by the S/O, however they would be there the tuesday.

What's happening there on Friday? Why do you want to be there so early. US side of the border is like 4 hours for me, so I'd have to leave by 6 am to be in that caravan...

No SPECIAL reason....just would like to avoid huge border lineups if we go a little later in the morning, and it IS still about a 5 hour drive from Niagara, is it not? I wouldn't mind not arriving TOO late in the day, and I need to stop in near Cleveland....drop off someone there for the weekend....
