Southern Ontario Owners
 
BoxsterSteve and I are thinking of heading out for a run Sunday afternoon-ish. Not sure where yet....if anyone else is around, you are welcome to join in. We are both in the KW area - so if you are in KW, Guelph or London or wherever, say hi and let's organize something.
Cheers!

Next weekend would be better if its gonna be an afternoon thing

Good run today guys! Always nice to meet some new Boxster friends. Hopefully next time we can get even more out.

Thanks Boxstersteve for planning the route. Didn't realize there were such great roads running through our area....and man, some of those homes!

Heiko

GTA_G20 07-05-2016 06:20 AM

Sounds like an event. Sorry I missed out

Giller 07-05-2016 07:24 AM

Lots of peeps in SWO - a little more notice and maybe we can get a nice convoy going.

Does anyone have some cool runs they do that we could use for our next time out?

GTA_G20 07-05-2016 07:30 AM

Wouldn't mind driving up the grey Bruce peninsula up to Owen sound walkerton

LEJ 07-05-2016 07:35 AM

I live in S/W Ontario so why don't all you come over to my home for a party and then a drive. It's S/W Ontario, California. If you leave today you should be here by the weekend.

GTA_G20 07-05-2016 07:36 AM

Hahahahhahaha

I'm on vacation... if I didn't have a fence to build around my back yard, I might just have taken you up on the offer... :cheers:

I grew up in Owen Sound....can't say I picture very many fun Porches roads up that way. I'll have to get my google on and see what I'm missing. Do you know of some routes up that way?

+1 Count me in for the next one!

BoxsterSteve 07-06-2016 02:40 PM

Giller and I have planned JULY 23rd for our next run.

All of you who have expressed interest in joining in our next excursion are more than welcome to drive along.

Departure from my place in Waterloo at 11:30am, travelling back roads to Erin and Belfountain, driving the Forks of The Credit, up Hwy10, Hockley Rd., then north up Airport Rd. until we run out of pavement.:D

Giller 07-06-2016 02:51 PM

If some of you live closer to where we are driving, we can always meet up somewhere along the way? Where would be a good spot to have a meet so others can join?

GaryMulcahey 07-06-2016 03:34 PM

Come east! We have some beauties out here in the Northumberland hills.
And cheaper gas. 😎

Are we stopping for Ice Cream :D Let me know which way you're coming over this way and I will hook up with you guys over this way rather than driving West first and then coming back... either that or we can set a time and I can meet you guys over at the forks of the credit road :-)
Heiko

I'll join up I live close to forks of the credit

Ice cream? Why not.

Heiko, we can run to Guelph and meet you there since we will be going past/through Guelph on the way. It will be about the 12:15-12:30 time frame .
We can meet other participants at the Belfountain General Store. Figure around 1:30, right?
Grab a cone and hit the road.
Can't wait to get my vroom on. :dance:

Sounds like a plan I will email you closer to the day for a meet point in Guelph I'm 2min from the lake on the east side. Got a game to catch at Fenway this weekend here in Boston first :D

Heiko 07-18-2016 07:07 PM

July 23rd is approaching... lets hope for nice weather :-)
BoxsterSteve what time you want to meet in Guelph?
If we meet the rest of the folks in Belfountain around 130 then we should meet here around 1PM. Perhaps we can meet at the Tim Hortons at the corner of Victoria and Woodlawn.... its about 20-25min from there to Belfountain. I can stay out for a few hours but I have a BBQ to attend to later in the afternoon :-) look forward to meeting you guys.
Heiko

BoxsterSteve 07-19-2016 12:22 AM

Heiko,
We'll be there @ 1:00pm, Maybe a bit before.

See you guys tomorrow :)

BoxsterSteve 07-23-2016 03:17 PM

Gentlemen, thanks for joining in!
It was a hot one, but well worth it for the camaraderie and the ice cream. :D
Next run... Muskoka?
What do you think?

Giller 07-23-2016 06:55 PM

Great twisties up there, that's for sure. I'm in - let's get a date and see if we can get a group going.

Heiko 07-24-2016 05:35 AM

It was definitely a great couple of hours getting our yesterday. Nice meeting up with you guys. If i'm around for the next ride I will be in for sure :) Here's a few pics from yesterday.

I lived in Mississauga for 28 years and really miss the roads in the Caledon area as well as Muskoka, Halliburton and down in the Niagara region.

You guys are lucky you have so many roads to choose from that are reasonably close. Here in Winnipeg you have to head an hour or 2 east toward Kenora to find interesting twisty bits or any sort of elevation change.

GTA_G20 07-26-2016 08:00 AM

Looks great boys.
