How about an October meet for Edmonton folks??
 
At the Red Deer meet, neuromancer suggested we have another local meet before the snow starts to fly. I thought that was a great idea as that would sort of make up for the guys who missed out.

So I may as well get this started so people can think and plan around it with lots of time.

How does either the 5th or 19th of October sound to everyone for a Mazda meet? I was going to say Protege Meet but that gosh darn nice looking Miata keeps showing up :D.

I figured either before or after the Thanksgiving weekend should be okay. Is the 5th too close to the last one? Also it is a Saturday so we have a little more time to chat and gawk compared to the evenings, since the days are getting shorter now.

We'll decide where when we agree on the date.

i'll come up for the meet, but i think you would be better off with 5th of oct just incase the snowcomes early this year

That'd be great. What about a cook-out? Say Hawrelak Park...near the river where the fire pits are...all we need do is bring wood and weiners and such?

Alternatively, how about a drive to somewhere? The Miata has a great route that takes about 3 hours starting at Gateway Park with a mid-run stop in Seba Beach ultimately ending up at Soda Jerks in St. Albert. Total time with a half hour stop in the middle is about 3.5 - 4 hours...a nice way to spend an afternoon.

I agree with both. Need to have the meet around something, rather than just standing around in a parking lot looking at each other's cars. A BBQ would be good as long as the weather would hold.

I though a fun time might be had at Whitemud Amusments, go-karts anyone?? :)

If I can make it I will.

Ohhhh boy, I love that idea!!! Anytime we can get to drive as a group would be so much fun after doing the same thing this past weekend in Red Deer. :wee: :wee:

Funny thing, Richard, I was even thinking the same sort of thing about the cookout but thought it was a silly idea.

What the heck am I going to do by myself in my car for 3 hours?! The only friend who would be willing to drive around with me for no reason for 3 hours.. and doesn't think I'm absolutely crazy because of how much I love this car... has his own p5 to drive.. :)

fraay September-12th-2002 08:57 PM

I just talked to a friend.. she said she'd come with me.. she's the most supportive person when it comes to me and my car other then Jas... :)

Her and I are taking my baby on her first mini camping trip this weekend.. I'm so excited! My car is probably going to hit 1000 clicks tonight too.. so I can start driving like a wild woman!

Ramble ramble.. :)

Does this mean that you guys don't want us Calgarians there? Actually Protege_Cat and I would love to come but the middle of the month would be better for us.

FireBall September-12th-2002 10:59 PM

Hey, I'm up for the trip, pending I'm not doing anything to the car that weekend.
If anything I'll come to the cook out for sure.:bounce:
whats the total km for the trip?

(Hands over ears and singing LA-LA-LA-LA-LA) I'm not listening :p :p. (Richard you know what I mean)

Richard I think the drive looks great. I have been on the north side of Wabamum lake where my friend has a cabin. Been on the south side too when I did some work at the Sundance plant many years ago but at that time did not have my P5. The north side was hilly and winedy (spelling?).

As for the go cart thing, although probably fun, I would rather drive my P5 :D.

Personally I would go for the drive and Soda Jerks.

Hey Jayrox, all from the south are invited. Didn't I see mesoh say he would come up here for this? Cool.

spikyC September-13th-2002 02:14 AM

Yeah i would be up for the drive.... sounds like lots of fun...

Just hope i don't have something come up....
I already had to miss the alberta meet!!

Brycer79swoman September-13th-2002 12:11 PM

WOOO HOOOOO
 
Count us in! Open fire, hotdogs and MARSHMELLOWS?! we are sooo there! :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:
