kev. If that route took under 90 minutes, then it is a consideration. We aren't looking for expediency, something scenic and a few twisties along the way.

Oh hell a route like that practically demands I get a Garmin GPS... if only the bank hadn't pooched the property taxes again <_<
'course I could just say #$%$% it and put the Garmin on the CC :P

PICK ME!
I have room in my car for four female navigators plus myself and I'm not even including my lap or the hatch. If we don't get lost I can absolutely guarantee the car will somehow run out of gas.

I am assuming you just want directions to the cruise meet at 11am. After that, everything that takes place from there will unfold along wiwth maps provided that day.
We are meeting at the Gateway to Niagara. Basically take the QEW Niagara to Casablanca in Grimsby. Turn right off the exit and go to the Tim Horton's. Yes Tim Horton's is the Gateway to Niagara. We'll see you there.
Is someone can't make that meeting, then I'll post up directions to where we are meeting in Niagara Falls for the lunch and Poker Run.
And YES, the Niagara Cruise Day is
OCTOBER 15TH AT 11AM..............THIS UPCOMING SATURDAY

I know it is a Focus meet and all but I think it would be a great day to bring out the MG? I can stop at your place in the morn and carry your BBQ stuff (or MG repair tools and spares :lol: ) in my wonder wagon.

The wife will have the ZTS that day. You can be co-driver (nav) in the WRX no problem unless a hawt, single, petite, skinny blonde chick posts between now and then? (not likely).
If you don't scare me too much you can drive for a "stage" or more of the poker run.

This is for the NOTL thing right ? if it is I'm going, not to sure on the poker part as I don't know how to play it.
I was the only member on this board with a Yellow Focus Sedan, and a 2002+ Euro Facelift on a sedan.
