Question for those in the Winnipeg Area (and Brandon, and all the li'l places around)...

Is there anything goin on between Brandon and Kenora? If not, anybody interested in making something happen?

I think it be cool to get a whole bunch of state members and canadian members at one huge meet.

it'd be cool to drive way the hell out there...but its a lil far for my taste...15-18hrs or some stupid thing from here

StockAlero00 · 07-27-2005, 12:45 PM

damn that's probably further out than me. forget that.

ptrudel · 07-27-2005, 12:57 PM

if it was i duno, about a 13-14hr drive, i'd do it then...don't know where that'd put me tho cuz i live far

StockAlero00 · 07-27-2005, 01:29 PM

haha, that's probably a reason why i not really jumping on going to the falls meet, from chicago to niagra falls i believe will take 10 hrs. Never done far of a drive before.

thats not bad...thats about what it was for me to detroit i think...non stop...left at 8:30pm, got home at 7:30am....never doin that drive alone again tho..just bring someone else with ya that can drive, its not so bad...

It would be nice to have a whole bunch of us from both sides meet... but yeah, then driving does become an issue.

Yeah bringing another person would be cool, and a lot easier to split the driving time with. Plus if i had more time off I wouldn't mind. I am requesting a vacation in october. Trying to plan a cruise, but if that doesn't work out to well, I hope i find somewhere to go.

I drive the 1200 km from home to Shilo quite often... 13 hours (with gas/eating taken into account). The worst part of the trip is Saskatchewan... not cause it's... well... it's just too damn flat and boring... but yeah, those distances begin to suck really, really fast. One can only sing along to the same skipping CD so many times before it... errr... falls out the window...

For those who don't know though... each summer in Lethbridge Alberta, there's a show called Street Wheelers. It's pretty big, a whole weekend, and lots of things to do. Last year I threw my Alero in for a few races... but, well... things never happened. Anyway, back to the point... those in the Alberta/Montana area interested, should look into it... great time. Usually around June/Early July
