Today we saw tons of cars out, many large groups of motorcycles, and many motorcyclists stopped in groups and not practicing social distancing at all. So as long as we make sure we practice social distancing I think we should be good.



forgot to add thanks to Adam for organizing this and doing the predrive.

Drove via side roads through to NOTL, then stopped to check on Dad in Fonthill before heading back across escarpment on Saturday. Corvette group, Mopar group, Jeep group, bike groups, and smaller group of classic American cars + a smattering of BMW’s were all encountered along our travels

You're welcome. The pre-drive was good, kids had a blast and survived 4 hours in the 928. LOL

Yep, lots of groups out on the weekend. If this cruise is successful we could look at doing a Rennlist Niagara run in a few weeks. Roads are better twistier in Niagara.

Yes, at least 20 cars at this point. With this nice weather, I'm guessing that we might hit 30, there are a few drivers that are not in this thread.

Yes, please bring your FRS as I will call out turns or any hazards along the route.

There will be a zoom call at the starting area so we can chat and do the cruise briefing, we can also use whats app or glympse during the cruise. The route will be sent via a google maps link.

All details will be in the PM.

I just checked Accuweather and the early morning is fine, late morning a chance of passing shower 1.0 mm then 3.9 mm in the afternoon. I think we will be fine.
