GTA Meets, Cruises and Social Events Thread

[Rakshaa]

I won't be able to attend weekly, but I'm interested in some local meets in Milton

[SLVRSRFR]

Depending when the meets are, I'd reach Milton. I don't live there, but I work in Mississauga so could always hop on the 401 if the meet is after my shift and head over.

[WhiteBRZ4]

Well I'm still unsure if it'd be weekly or whatnot, just trying to find if theres a group of 86's that'd be down to have meets weekly, bi-weekly, monthly etc.

[RacingCanuk]

I'd be up for meeting a few more '86 drivers in the Milton area (I'm in Halton Hills)...

for those who didn't join us last year on my muskoka cruise, it was a blast.



This year I'm hoping to get more people and maybe we can all stop for lunch this time and make a good day out of it.


I'm also taking my frs out east this summer all the way to Cape Breton Nova Scotia and then back again through a ferry to PEI and then home via the confederation bridge. along with visiting old Quebec city and new Brunswick on the way. and as much as I would have loved to do it with a couple of gt86s, this is more of a vacation with the girlfriend. sorry

oh and for those who don't know Cape Breton


.... yeah that's gonna be a dream to drive on.

Keep me updated on the Muskoka drive. I definitely want to join, though I am not sure if I can actually join.

Yeah dude, I'm aiming for maybe mid to late july as of now and I'm looking on a friday or sunday.

That's when it should be expected.

This time we'll stop for lunch and stuff and make a day out of it.

Anything happening this Friday night?

Scratch what I said before, if muskoka turns more green by may I'd be okay to go then.

Anyone from muskoka who can keep me updated whether it's not as yellow down there?

Alright guys so I'm gonna set a tentative date as of now, weather permitting, for Sunday May 15, 2016. I'm hoping to get 5 or more people this time anything less and we might have to reschedule.

Meet at the RBC Parking lot on Weston and Rutherford at 8am SHARP. Most i'll wait for people is 10 minutes before taking off with the group we have. Make sure you come on a full tank of gas this way we're all on the same page and we'll all fill up at the same station in muskoka (If need be). Have a good breakfast because we will be eating after around 3 hours of driving. For anyone who is north of where we are meeting, we can meet you off the 400 if you really want to come with us.


This is the route for those who have lowered cars there are two frost heaves on Southwood road that you might want to keep a look out for.

As for speed, I'll most likely be following all the road rules, anyone that wants to speed can go ahead but be sure that you know the route because if you veer off I'm not going to stop and try and find you. I'm gonna try to load the route on waze so I can keep an eye on reported speed traps or anything. Last time we had @DjDATZ lead the way with the radar detector.

Just be sure not to tail gait anyone, last time we went I slammed the brakes because of roadkill on the road but my car was able to clear it. Not only that but being in Muskoka, the chances of Moose and deer crossings are high (but we won't be driving at night so it'll be less risky) so just keep some distance from the person in front of you.

Piss breaks along the way in the woods, I drink a lot of water so I usually go often but I'll try and hold off on the day of.

We'll be having lunch at Ella's Place and hopefully if the weather is nice by then we can eat on the water front patio. They've got good burgers and craft beer which I'll most likely be ordering.

All in all, it should be a fantastic day of driving, just drive responsibly and remember the roads are public. Anyone who is interested in coming just post here so I can gauge how many people are going to come and then we'll finalize the date. The expected time for the trip should be around 6 hours in total, 7 as a worst case scenario.
