HI ALL,

as noted here:

https://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum1/HTML/069488.html

Our next cruise & meet is coming up!

Saturday August 16th, in the afternoon.... (note the next Sunday cruise will be on Aug. 24th...)

This one will be a little different:

it'll be an urban run of the west GTA from Mississauga, along the Lakeshore drive, & ending up in Burlington.

We get to show off our cars to the public alittle & enjoy a scenic road through some nice neighbourhoods and along the waterfront.

It'll also include an ice cream stop, so bring your dessert apppetite.

It will start from the Walmart parking lot at Winston Churchill Blvd & 401 in Mississauga.

Meet up time still to be confirmed & announced...
Be food & gas filled so we can leave promptly at the designated time.


We've never run this as a group before, it's a new one but i've run it at least a few times, it's a great fun drive & also recommended for fall drives too.

Who's in? (I'd like a tentative tally please.)

hope to see you soon.

okay cruise folks, revised time to start is 4 pm.

(Joe's bbq has been postponed to a later date...)

We can meet up at 3;30 pm at the meeting spot.

Cruise is approx 1.5-2 hrs one way, then we can either head back & have a dinner at a really nice scenic marina i know of, or we can decide to have dinner & a beer near our end point, howzatsound?

Sorry guys, can't make the cruise - decided to leave Friday for the Woodward Dream Cruise in Michigan.
I'll be at Mapleview next Wednesday though with my friend's Lotus.
