Southern Ontario summer cruise?

Hi Ontarians,
nvanadm and I joined a GTR cruise not to long ago but couldn't keep up.
We wound up searching for more fun places to drive:



We then decided we should try to organize a cruise in South Western Ontario this summer. It should probably be a weekend, with picnics and family friendly, some bumpy roads..

With no firm date or location in mind, is there any interest or input?

I'd love to do one. Find some decent trails somewhere and go play. Niagara is flat and boring, but I might be able to scout locations in Bruce/Grey.

Then maybe I can pick everyone's brain about my starting issues when it gets mildly chilly.

Man, I'd love to go but I'm on another part of the planet. I love the camera angle from the roof of your Starwagon! Good choice in music, as well.

I'm sure you guys are going to have a blast!

Falco.

Thanks Falco!
I think I'm tied up with arrivals until the last weekend of August, I know nvanAdam is in South Carolina with his bus at the moment. Would the weekend of the 25th work for anybody? With that much lead time, I could probably get a few vans not on the forum to come. Feds and nvanadam lets get a FB event going.. and pick a location

Wow cool vid. I have drool on my keyboard from all the rusty VW shots. Of course still love the L300 more.

we talkin aug 25th here?! might be able to swing it. i've been following nsxi's n.american adventure and it's my understanding he's headed back this way, just not sure when. if there was another chance, i think it'd be great if we all hooked up at right about the same time, or a 2nd time after this meet.
anyway, got my eye on it.

Thanks for thinking of me. I should be in the GTA around the 10th or 11th of September and will be in the area for just a couple days.

Timing is ridiculously bad for me, but I might be able to sneak out for an evening... Meeting closer to Hamilton, or especially in Niagara Falls would work out better for me.

So how about a meet on the 12th or 13th. I only have two full days 1.5 of which will be needed for sightseeing and I'm staying with friends so will want to visit with them as well. Maybe a place between Toronto and Niagra falls? I'm hoping to see Feds and Delicioso! (would love to see more but these are the ones I've been pm'ing with). Any chance someone from the area could pick a place and get the ball rolling before time gets too tight?

Being totally selfish here:

Let's meet at Hutches in Hamilton on the 13th, around 5 pm.
