I've mentioned a few times in the past interest in doing a Snake Road, King Road, Waterdown Road run in Waterdown/Burlington at some point. If anyone is interested, let me know what weekends you are free. This weekend and next weekend are out for me but the latter half of October might still work out. Should do it before snow tire season.

a Sunday aternoon later in the month looks interesting - keep me posted

Roscoe76 · Oct 5th, 2002, 10:22 AM

I'm in! Keep me posted.

Jayomatic · Oct 5th, 2002, 01:58 PM

I'm in. I might have my car by then. Whoooo! Hopefully.

Either way I am in !

HarryHBMCC · Oct 5th, 2002, 06:32 PM

Jayomatic, your profile says Cooper S? I thought you were getting a Cooper? Which is it??? Just wondering...

Harry

paulmon · Oct 6th, 2002, 08:48 AM

I'm in, sounds like fun. Any Sunday should do for me. How about we decide on a date? How does the 20th work for everyone?

Paul

HarryHBMCC · Oct 6th, 2002, 05:57 PM

The 20th works for me. Is morning or afternoon better for people? I'm usually up early but afternoon would be OK too.

How about 11am or so? But I'm open.

Roscoe, I'm in Mississauga too. We can head over to Burlington together.

Jayomatic · Oct 6th, 2002, 09:25 PM

20th is good. i wont have my car for then but I can always go for a ride. I think the later in the day the better. I like to sleep in a bit on weekends.

GordonD · Oct 7th, 2002, 08:13 AM

I'm in Mississauga up at the 401 so travel time Burlington is no issue.

personal preferance is for a reasonable say 10/11 am start

Wow. With the exception of Jayomatic and HarryIndyBlue it sounds like we're all in Mississauga. I'm in Meadovale.

Where do we all want to meet? Considering it sounds like most of us are up near or north of the 401 (myself included) perhaps meeting near Kelso park and following the Niagra escarpment down to Burlington would be in order.

Thoughts?

Paul

scollins · Oct 7th, 2002, 12:16 PM

Count me in, if I'm welcome

HarryHBMCC · Oct 7th, 2002, 12:53 PM

I'm in Guelph but if most are meeting at Kelso Park I can meet there too. We can find a way to combine that run with the set of roads in Burlington/Waterdown.

So let's see, October 20th, meet at Kelso Park at 10:00am. Is that sounding good?

Scollins -- will you have your Launch Ed or will your S be in by that date? You are welcome to come in either car, of course!

It'll be as much a surprise to you as it is to me! I'm trying to find out right now. My S supposedly arrived in Halifax on September 29th, so it should be on the train by now...

Roscoe76 · Oct 7th, 2002, 01:09 PM

Kelso is good. I'm in south Mississauga, but Kelso isn't a problem... 10am, I'm there.

Supercuper, if you're out there, let us know!

scollins · Oct 7th, 2002, 01:14 PM

Can someone send me a MapQuest link to Kelso Park--I tried, but ended up north of Thunder Bay somewhere...you guys wouldn't send me on a snipe hunt, right?

Shawn

supercuper · Oct 7th, 2002, 01:20 PM

I'm always up for a meet, but if it this weekend then I'm affraid I probably won't be able to make it, too much family stuff to do as well as going mountain biking. Let me know the date time and place and I'll run through my schedule, I may be able to go biking either before or after.

Happy motoring...

HarryHBMCC · Oct 7th, 2002, 01:35 PM

Supercuper, it isn't this coming weekend, it is the following one, Sunday October 20th. I think most are booked with thanksgiving plans this coming weekend. If you are free on the 20th, let me know and we can drive over to Kelso together on the 401 if you like.

Kelso has good bike trails too. Do you carry your bike in or on your MINI? I have racks for my wagon but not the MINI and never thought about putting a bike inside (possible even?).
