We can try it again sometime this week. Possibly same time and place.

Our experience with the Monday massiv meets in Mississauga was that the key to making it work was to pick a day/time and stick with it, no matter what. At first the turnout was spotty but after a while the numbers grew and everyone who was interested came to rely on the fact of where and when the meet was going to be.

To be honest I don't think trying different days / times / locations will work because there will always be challenges to coming out on a last-minute basis.

So ... to whomever is taking on the challenge of organizing an east end meet I would say pick a time and place that suits you best and then make a point of coming out come hell or high water.

Kevin (focus_man focus) did that for the monday meets and occasionally there would be just two - sometimes me and him, but more often just John and him ... and then he would post up on Tuesday morning about the meet that everyone else missed and we'd post up that we'd make a point of making it out the next time - and we knew exactly when and where that was and it became easier and easier to plan for.

Kevin doing that consistently for literally a couple of years was the reason the Monday meets are the success that they are today - with sometimes as many as 20 to 25 cars out, but rarely less than 10 - including guys from as far away as Hamilton and yes Scarborough and further east.

If you do that - I guarantee that after a while a few of us from the west end will get into the habit of attending an east end meet on a regular basis.
