Ok it's raining and shitty out now, but is supposed to clear up for Sat. Not that I am cancelling or anything stupid. But if need be, is there anyway we could do a quick wash if necessary? Is there a place nearby ---hand washing of course.
Anthony, you and I can chat tonite about what time we are leaving Burlington, but has it been figured out a time and place to meet on the 400?
Nope, nobody has figured it out until the last friggin minute. How about the car pool area at 400 & Hwy 9/Orangeville exit. 1pm. Take Anthony's cell # from the wing night thread if you need to call a brother. Chime in here for a possible head count and I'll check it tomorrow before we leave.
When you get off the 400 north turn west/left and I believe it's on your left hand side. I could be wrong since it's been a while.

I have an even better suggestion. There is a gas bar/restaurant/rest stop on the 400 northbound between the Major Mackenzie Rd. Exit and the King City Sideroad exit (It has a Petro Crap and a Tims/Wendy's in it)
We could all meet there at a designated time. I can park in teh disabled parking so my Focus would be easy enough to spot.
How's that?

Amen, great food, gracious hosts, nice weather, you couldn't ask for anything more.
Boy was that a quick ride back though :P After dogging it at 110km/h until the pack caught up with me after I left I don't think we had it under 120km/h for more than a few seconds the entire way back on the 400 :lol:

Glad it turned out well.
Barrie Bbq And Meet - Frost__2001 - 09-18-2005
yeah it was a good meet & greet, too bad you couldn't make it ash, although I'll make one complaint, it got really chilly rather quickly as the sun started to set though, ahh well....
all in all a good meet.
Barrie Bbq And Meet - scoobasteve - 09-20-2005

Meh, you made it and the car made it back for you. It's all good :)
Y'all treated the 400 like it was Cayuga, I think I used up all my lucky karma that cop didn't show up to bust my @$$ (Our average speed was 120km/h, I'm normally a 110km/h guy myself :D )

^^-- rule of thumb: so long as you let half the traffic pass as you pass half the traffic, you should be alright.
that and I'm sure the cops would rather stop meford's shiny car than my rolling ball of dust.
