2008 Calgary Deli meet 16 November

[Erebus]

[EDIT] That's Sunday 16 November, not the 15th. Sorry about that. [end edit]

It's time we had another Deli meet in the Calgary area. The date I've picked is Sunday 15 November. That should give people enough time to plan their schedule.

I haven't fully decided the details, but I'm thinking of repeating the trip of last October. See that trip log at: http://www.delica.ca/forum/calgary-deli ... -1399.html

If anyone else has any other preferences, just speak up.

Date sounds good to me. Last year we did it on my wife's birthday and I didn't take her... And she still reminds me about this.

It'll be interesting to meet all the new owners.

See you guys there,

sounds like a plan! (and you are welcome to bring your wife this time!)

Sounds like I should have postponed my summer vacation travels to Calgary until later in the year.

Wish I could be there with you guys.

November sounds good to me, haven't been able to make it to a meet yet, but can't wait to check it out!

Cheers all!

I'll do my best to remind people. Of course, now that you've posted on this thread, you should receive e-mail notification anytime there is activity on this thread, so you'll be automatically reminded.

For those who haven't posted, in the top left, just below the "New Topic" button, you should see a "subscribe topic" link. Click that, and you too will be notified of new posts on this thread.

Note for everyone coming: if you have FRS, CB, or ham radios, bring them, that way we can keep in touch on the trail (Green1 and I can do all three).

Oops. The 15th is Saturday, Sunday is the 16th. What I really meant is Sunday the 16th. Unless everyone wants Saturday.

I'm going to play dumb blonde here,
The meet for sure is Sunday the 16th?
Is it alright if I pile all my friends in my van and bring them along?

I think it will be Sunday the 16th, as opposed to Sunday the 15th that I first proposed (I'm blonde too). You can bring all the friends/relatives/enemies you want. They can even come in their own vehicles, but 4x4 will be highly recommended (good ground clearance as a minimum). Of course is they get stuck, we'll either leave them to rot, or we'll have fun and do an extrication -- we might have to vote on it <grin>

Only a week and a half to go until the Calgary region Deli meet. I propose we meet, like the last time, at the Tim Horton's in Cochrane (not Canmore!) at 0900. Once everyone is there, we'll head off. Bring a picnic lunch and we'll have lunch somewhere out there in the boonies. Does anyone have time constraints? It will probably be a most-of-the-day run, getting back to Cochrane around 1600 (4 PM).

The Tim's is at the west end of town, a block south and west of the intersection of Hwy 22 and 1A.

If anyone needs more directions, PM or e-mail me and I'll send you some.

Reminder: if you have ham or FRS or CB radios, bring one/them.

Only time constraint is I have to be in Caroline Alberta before 2100hrs

And so far I am praying that I have a Delica back before the meet!

Only had my Van since Feb and would like to meet some of the other Delica owers around Calgary.
However need to be back in town for 2pm, would it be ok if I just (maybe) try and meet you all for coffee at the Tim's in the morning?
You guys are in for a good drive, I have been down that road to hike/camp at blackrock mtn many times.

Sure! Jungle Jon did that last time.

BTW, everyone: last time, the Tim's had a huge lineup, so actually buying something there wasn't really an option. Might be the same thing this time.

Just a reminder that the Calgary area Deli meet is tomorrow (Sunday). Meet at the Tim Horton's in Cochrane at 0900, then we head off from there. Bring lunch.

I hope the Deli owners come out, I've had some cancellations, but not much in the way of confirmations!

Be there or be square!
