Default Where is everyone!?!?!

Ok, I know I'm guilty of this myself, but does it seem the Canadian Section has been less active the past while? I know we're all busy, I have been crazy busy myself, but I am promising not to make too many more crazy deadlines that drain all my time and energy.

We GOTS to cruise more!!!!

Stan, will there be a hotdog run this week?!?!?
Beuller?? Beuller?!?

Might have something to do with all this rain we've been having. Some of these Vette owners are somewhat afraid of that wet stuff that comes down from the sky.

By the way, I'm here!.........if that counts for anything?

Course it Counts Mr Frank!
I didn't mean everyone was gone, just seemed like less people than usual.

Ok I'll post for a cruise for one night this week, don't know which one yet. Or anyone else feel free to start one.

By the way, vettes don't actually melt in the rain.Just means you have to wash them again.

i usually drop into the corvette forum each day...

like Frank says - its been the summer of rain ( can't go 3 days without wet roads - or so it seems)

i've been lucky on my 3 runs on the bike into the US this year only had to pull out the rain-gear once

the forum does seem quiet or maybe nobody answers me lol (who knows)

Pete

hey Mo - did ya find me a dome-lite ?

car is out of commission as you know so reading the forums has been less a priority, can be depressing.

I agree with Frank. Cruising weather got off to a very late start this year probably cause of the snow and then the rain.

Then we had the sky rocketing costs of gas.

Not to mention having to deal with OPP storm troopers.

Lots of modding went on this summer too. Some didn't have cars on the road.

Then there were the 2 or 3 incidents for a couple of people that deprived them of their cars for weeks at a time.

Lots of track time went on this year compared to last as well.

Plus people were generally more busy this year with work and family.

Lots of contributing factors. But we've had some fun this year. The Webers cruise at the start of the season, Mid-Ohio, Bloomington, Mosport, Carlisle, Pillar and Post cruise, the Reif Winery cruise, Tim Horton's Camp Day cruise, Chapters on Saturday and the Thursday night GTG's and cruises, and of course, the various cruise-in's around Ontario, such as Mapleview, Fortino's, AMC and Canadian Tire on the Queensway.

Nice wrap up of the season events Stan, I agree whole heartedly. I feel as though this summer has been really busy vette wise for me

6 more of those like that. That's why I wasn't able to go on the last Niagara on the Lake run.
