OH YA!

As noted here, https://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum1/HTML/069488.html
the next fall cruise in October is happening, so mark your calendars for another scenic tour.


This one is different from the others as it can be a high performance run. I've seen speed bikes do this one frequently (and a Fiero or 2!)
It will take place through Halton Hills, Flamboro, Milton areas, with a lunch stop at the end.

Included: lots of twisties, elevation changes, a high speed section, wonderful vistas, roads & spots along the way, plus a VERY high incline road!)
Ask Dave E Buoy & Sue about their opinion on this one!:
https://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum1/HTML/072377.html
This one should be especially nice as the leaves should be quite turned by then too...


It will start from the Walmart parking lot at Winston Churchill Blvd & just south of the 401 in Mississauga.
Meet up time will be at 9:30 am & departure at 10 am.
Be food & gas filled so we can leave promptly at the designated time.


keep posted here for the weather decision as we approach closer to cruise day...

Who's in? (tentative tally requested please.)

This sounds like a blast! Unfortunately my fiero is having transmission problems, and I know I would have problems keeping up with the V6's. Unless you wanna push me up the hills lol. I am trying to get a replacement th125c, so if I get it in time Ill be sure to stop by. Why did i sell my GT???!!!???

I'm sorry I missed out.
It was Erin's roof we were replacing and now I'm sore and it's still not done!

I wasn't there, but you get Props just for having "Escarpment" in your thread title.

Looks like you had fun. I miss the fall weather. It was in the 90s this weekend here.

So I guess there is nothing planned for the Thanksgiving weekend. I am hoping to get out and meet everyone, now that the car is finally on the road. I'll probably get the itch to pull it all apart again and install the intercooler that is calling me from the garage.
