Thread Updated
Hey Everyone,
I updated our thread. So our final two meeting points will be OAKVILLE (BRONTE GO STATION) or AJAX (AJAX GO STATION). For peeps who previously signed up for the Toronto meeting spot, I've bumped you over to AJAX. If you haven't replied with where you plan on meeting up, (either oakville or ajax), please let me know by Friday May 4th! |

+1 on that... Fairview Mall will be a nightmare getting in and out of on a Saturday.. there are usually huge lineups just getting into and out of the parking lots. So Ajax Go it is then.. what time are people arriving.. 10:30am sounds good if departure is 11:15am?

Can I suggest that those of you who have FRS radios bring them along? That way we can all communicate while driving...
I have about 4 of them so I can and lend some out (bring your own AA batteries, each takes 3). |

Has a final route been posted? If not, is the plan to take the 401 all the way to Trenton? Might be nicer to get off the 401 a bit earlier and drive along the smaller roads near the lake instead. For example, we could get off at Grafton and then follow Country Road 2 to Brighton, then take 64 for Carrying Place. This would have the added benefit of bypassing Trenton, which would help us stay together. Trenton has a lot of traffic and lights, it will be hard to stay as a group going through that city...
Here is the route I'm proposing... |

Mike, the route looks good to me. Once at Carring Place the scenary really starts to look good!
I'll borrow one of your FRS radios if they aren't already called for. I'll bring 6 AA batteries (I have no idea how much juice these things use). Only7 more days |

With 10+ cars I assume this will be a slow scenic drive. There are some but not many twisty roads in the area, and likely they will be full of slow moving tourists visiting vineyards and other such things. I'm bringing the girlfriend and we plan to stay overnight in the area to make the most of this trip. There are some nice twisty roads north of Trenton which I may attack on Sunday before heading home.
If you want twisty roads and a fast pace, we can't stay together as a tight group.. each driver would need a GPS with preprogrammed route or printed directions so everyone knows where they are going, and walkie talkies are a huge bonus. I can organize such an adventure for those interested... let me know or let's discuss on Saturday. |

Does anyone have any suggestions on where we could park around Sandbanks provincial park to take a nice group picture? (ie. a nice parking lot with a view?) Sandbanks is really beautiful but many of the roads inside the park are not M3 friendly (not paved and quite bumpy).
Maybe Salmon Point? ... but I haven't been there in a while. |
