You know it! ;D

Lets get a large group together to cruise down, We used to have 10-15 vw's meet at the old CIP Then head south(those were some of the best summer shows).

For those in the Vancouver area, lets meet at the Boston Pizza early am and then meet the rest on 176th just before the border crossing?

I was planning on catching a ferry over to vancvouer after work friday and bombing down to around the show and crash at a friends place friday night... but if a bunch of you guys are heading down saturday morning, I could probably make that work.

Any idea on a time frame for caravaning down to this show? There might be a couple from the Bellingham area that might like to join in. We have just recently started a sudo-club for us northern Washington guys. Nothing formal, just getting together when we can and a site to chat.

i'd be into meeting up at 176th just before the border (it's way easier for me to get there, then across town to bp). we just need to figure out a time...630am? that would get us down to the show around 815-ish? just thinking out loud...let's figure it out & get rollin'!

im not sure if im going to this forsure but hopefully will be. I cant really get a ferry over early enough saturday so will probably go to the mainland on friday night, and just head down to north seattle area... although I would like to cruise with you guys... more canadians the better.

Silas, I can't take any credit for the site. It's a brain child of another guy in the area. I'm sure glad he got it going though. I'll get the word out on our site to see what the response will be as far as the time goes. Kind of early for some of us.  ;D

This is for Randy "Grumblecakes" on our site  You_Rock_Emoticon

Any confirmation on a time you might be running through Bellingham? There are a couple here that would like to meet up with you.

It looks like there will be 2 of us for sure that would like to jump in on the trip down. We are planning on meeting at the Bellingham Airport (Bakerview Rd) southbound on ramp at 7:00. Would that work out?

hey steve...that sounds like that might work.

Me and another guy Chuck from victoria are heading down friday night. By the time we'd of gotten a ferry saturday morning it'd be to late in the day. but we should be down there. maybe cruise back up with you guys.

Was this at the gas station at the Bellingham airport exit? If you plan on hitting that again we could just meet you there. I'll need to know a time soon because I don't have the phone number for the other guy that is meeting us.

Had a blast yesterday! That was the longest I've ever stayed at a car show. Was getting pretty antsy by the end of the day (I'm a bit ADHD). The show was the largest I think I can remember ever seeing down there. If you missed it this year, you should plan for next year. The guys put on a great show.

Thanks Silas
