Planning a get together for guys in Ontario.
Hey ladies and gents. Trying to plan a get together in the next couple of weeks for all the people from Ontario. We should try to get a head count and work out a location with the best driving roads that is semi convenient for everyone to get to. Who is in?

Wow, that's some big geography to cover....but worth a shot. Who on here is a member of the PCA Upper Canada? They have some good rides throughout the year. BoxsterSteve and myself joined up this year to hit a few (it's only about $50 or so). There's a run on May 2nd starting in Bracebridge and running through the Muskokas that we are eyeing up I believe.

The PCA UCR Spring Muskoka fun run is likely full already, or very close to it. If you are thinking about it contact David Forbes asap. Porsche of London also runs a late May fun run, but the roads cannot compare to Muskoka.

I'd be in as well but the ol' garage queen is still sitting pretty in hibernation. I'm waiting until all the sand and salt is off the road before I get her out.
I was up in Barrie last week and the roads are just coated in sand still; it will likely be a few weeks yet before they get cleaned up.

Ok so I obviously need to get more organized here. Who ever is in email me at lr@iqbridge.ca with contact information. I'm trying to get a head count so I can call in advance to places where we can eat along a certain route so they may accommodate us.
Shoot me some dates and let's see when everyone is aboard weather permitting..

Head count is good - but where is important. Ottawa is a long ways away for some of us....are we shooting for somewhere in the middle then?

Exactly. I wouldn't even mind going a little bit further your way for some better driving roads. The roads around 1000 Islands are good so I've heard. Can anyone vouch?

If there is enough interest in meeting in SW Ontario (Kitchener/Guelph Area), perhaps we can even do a couple meets around here. I got three nice rides in mind...
First is 103 miles round trip and highlights Belfountain, Hockley Valley Road, Lunch in Orangeville then over to Elora Gorge, and a stop at an old covered bridge
Second is a 200 mile ride through the Wellington country country side up through Durham, Flesherton, with stop at Eugena Falls, Beaver Valley, Lunch in Meaford (I might be able to arrange a stop at the Coast Guard station and get us abord the 47' Search and Rescue Cutter) and then a nice back through Beaver Valley's Scenic back roads.
Third up is a much shorter 90 mile ride through some escarpment county roads towards Burlington, with a side trip to "Oakville Porsche Centre" then back up via Burlington/Waterdown (Snake road) and back up towards Guelph.

Heiko.....those all sound awesome. hockley valley is a great drive, and yes, up around Meaford is nice too. I'll bet we can get a group together for those runs. I'm in if we can figure out the timing! BoxsterSteve? You in?
