Two cruises already on tap for this weekend already and a chilli run. The chilli run is great only one make of classic aloud, so far I am aware of 1 Morgan, 1 E-type, 1 Viper, 1 TR3, my vette, 1 70 Challenger, 1 Camaro SS vert., Volvo P1800, and a few others that I have never met before. We usually do this on Thanksgiving wknd. but the organizer's health is in decline (MS). These are all guys from up in this area who just like to run the back roads every once in awhile. Have fun on your run. :cheers:

O.K. Monday at noon it is!! For all you Shark Pack guys, or for that matter, any one who would like to drop by.... but please post here no later than say 3 o'clock Sunday so I can go get more supplies if needed. (stores closed Monday!) I figure we can meet at my place, hang for a bit, then I'll show you guys some of the roads I frequent. Head back to the house mid to late afternoon for the BBQ.

Directions. Waterdown is west of Oaville and Burlington on Highway 5. Continue west thru town and once you pass Dairy Queen, the next set of lights is Riley Street. Turn right. Follow Riley St. thru the three way stop and just as the street makes a 90 degree left you'll see # 65 Riley on the inside corner. The Vette will be in the driveway. Flip yourself around as there is at least 150' of curb side parking in front of my house.

So please... whomever is coming, sign up here, and let me know what you prefer to eat. So far I've got burgers, pork chops and chicken, but I'll possibly get ribs too (thanks Greg, now I've got a craving) and remember it's BYOB.

See ya :cheers:

Mike, the 403 westbound connects directly with Hwy 5. It's the exit just after the 407 exit (what used to be the Trafalgar exit before they built 407). You turn right/west onto Hwy 5 and follow 75Rag's directions from there.

Do to my inability to constrain myself from making rude and gaseous noises in a public setting I too am out, there Dwayne, told you I would do one better. I know why you are not going, stop trying to make it all about you, your wife posted in the Cdn. Women's Room that you 2 are trying to have a Chow Chow. 7 isn't enough, so you 2 are going to the breeders again. :cheers: Anyway D. there is that time old saying - don't shoot the messenger for comments made by others. :yesnod:

Jack, I hope you saw Mark's post. Meeting at my place about noon...leaving for the cruise ?? after that. Cruise = about 1.5 hrs or so. Back the house for bbq mid afternoon. (Cell # in bio) See ya.

BTW Guys, add ribs to the menu, was at the grocery store and couldn't resist. Bring you appetites. If any one else from the area checks this post you're welcome to join us, just be here around noon to partake in the cruise. (Directions earlier in thread)
