Canada Coast to Coast Meeting

Post by Miccon » Tue Aug 07, 2012 1:58 am

I don't know if any of you are up for this, but I suspect some of you will be.
I have put on about 1500 miles already in the F's and just can't get enough of the fun and looks because of the RHD

I am suggesting that we try to have a meeting of our cars sometime next year. perhaps even a bit of a tour??
It would be somewhat insane if we could get most of us together with our toys, whatever the colour.

Location???? I am open to suggestions, maybe combine with one of the bigger shows of the year....

Well it's a thought anyway. Life on the Prairies gets you like that

I would say Ontario but if too many orange cars show up they may think we are with the NDP!!!!!

I suppose if Orange was going to be the main colour we should arrange it as a Fall Colors run :lol:

I will also have an Orange F here next year, though not in Volcano. it is a UK Ford ST pearlescent colour :P Nice all the same!

Being that I am somewhat centrally located geographically, I'm will to host the event. I'll pick up a couple extra cases of beer this weekend!

A meet up would be fun, although the distance does get in the way.

I would be up for Calgary/Edmonton but not much farther. I have done Winnipeg-Vancouver in an MG and it's a marathon!
All the way to Ontario would be brutal.
I took my ZA-Magnette to the NAMGAR GT in Wisconsin a couple of years ago but a group of us cheated and hired a transporter.
I didn't fancy driving a couple of thousand miles across the US Prairies in July with no A-C! :oops:

I'd love to join you guys on a run across Canada some time! Yimmy and I have done a few European jaunts, but Canada would be fun! No idea when we'd get time to do it, what with work and a young family... but one day! :D :thumbsu:

You're invited whenever you can make it Rob. The roads around where I live are very straight, flat, and boring, but the beer is cold :-)
