That's the spirit! See you in Oakville. BTW, Niagara only 40% chance of rain until mid-afternoon.

Was surprised at the number of cars that met up at the Timmies at QEW/Winston Churchill. Kudos to Murray and his lovely wife Wendy for making the trek all the way down from Haliburton for this cruise. They left at 6:30 in the morning and were at the Timmies by 9am.

I wasn't playing shutterbug today but I did manage to snag a couple of pics.

Here we all are at Mick and Angelos.


And here we are lined up 2x2 cruising past Niagara Falls. 18 cars in all.


It was great meeting the Piedmont Corvette Club from Virginia. I hope you all enjoyed today's outing. But I do feel bad for Sam not making the rest of the cruise due to the on and off and on again showers. Hopefully you'll join us for some cruises next year Sam.

Stan: Great job in pulling this event together.....
The Piedmont Corvette Club from Virginia were a Great Group.
Too bad I had to "bail out", with the Rain coming down.
The Tarp wasn't useful while Driving.... Only got a "little" wet.
Thanks again
Sam

It was an AWESOME Cruise! to think I almost stayed home, was a last minute decision. Love those roads!

We have a good group, no attitudes and always lots of laughs. Great to meet the Piedmont Corvette Club, too bad Carl and Vonia had to miss it.
