Thumbs up

Got to give a to Maitre for his consistency in organizing these meets even over the winter time. Although I can't make it to most of them, I could definitely appreciate the effort in organizing. "Hats off to you buddy!"

See y'all in the spring.

This Friday, Feb 14 -- Beater Meet, East side
Kennedy Commons (I'm thinking meet up at the Chapters lot, hang for a while, maybe relocate to Tim's around the corner if we get cold ... or just pile into my giant car to warm up. Supposed to be warm on Friday though!)

Next Friday, Feb 21 -- Beater Meet, West side
Square1 (I'm thinking meet up at the North-West Target lot, hang for a while, maybe relocate to Chapters across the road if we get cold ... or just pile into my giant car to warm up. Long-term forecast is above 0C next Friday!!)


I will be present for both events. I'll be late though, sorry. Yes, late for my own events, but I never chose that 9pm theme! 10pm is what I can do, so that is what I will do. Feel free to show up earlier, Boeuf.

Please post if you are interested!

I wouldn't do it if I didn't enjoy it. (Too bad I don't enjoy it enough to actually manage the big seasonal meets, but luckily there are others who do.)

Guys, don't forget about the West-end meet this Friday! Can I get a show of hands from some westsiders here, just so I know it's not a complete waste of time?

Not that last Friday was a waste. It was a complete success! I repeat: COMPLETE SUCCESS.

A regular group of us meet up on Fridays. Usually at 9pm at Kennedy Commons in Scarborough. Although during the winter months meets are few and far between.

Some of the West end guys meet up in Mississauga once in awhile, but they don't often post the meets (or at least, not in this thread). But if you're interested, post up again once you're ready to roll, and we'll put a Fridsy meet together. Once the weather is nice again, the East end meets are pretty solid every week, if you're up for that drive once in a while.

I'm in Dundas and drive my 8 year-round (not so sure if this will continue after this last winter). There's also a few members in Hamilton, Burlington and Oakville. I thought about getting a spring meet for us in the "extreme west".

Just bought my RX8, I'm from Stouffville however spend a lot of time in Markham. Nice to see an active community. I'm new to rotary engines so I'm sure I'll have some questions.

I like the mid May and Niagara Falls area for the spring meet. Spring/Summer comes earlier down in the Niagara Pennisula.

A niagara cruise hasn't been done in a long time.
This sounds like a good idea.

I remember doing a Niagara cruise with the RX7 club back when I had my Miata with the Miataphiles. That was a great cruise. Must have been 10 or 11 years ago.

Yep, it's been awhile. But we can redo it this season!

I'll see about contacting some friends out by niagara.

Hey everyone! Hope all are well. I'd be down for a Niagara cruise when it's warm out and if people are interested. Our summers are too short anyway so We should try and arrange a few more meets and some cruises this year
