Hey guys,
as discussed, we will be at our current location one last time next Saturday before moving to our new winter location for our Saturday Porsche GTGs effective November 24th. The simple reason is that as it gets colder, it becomes less enjoyable to stand around outside and the seating inside the Starbucks is pretty restricted. The winter location is Artisano's Bakery and Café located at the corner of Islington and Titan.
Here is a link with a map and all other pertinent info: http://artisanobakery.com/Home/?id=7...ATION&loc=LOCA
A number of us have scouted out the location a few times this season and I'm happy to report that there is plenty of parking, great coffee and food and lots of seating inside.
The time stays the same at 10 am until whenever. Whoever shows up first, should try to snag some tables near the fireplace.

Well Guys here goes. it is Friday at 5:00pm and it is already dark outside. The Audi is backed in the garage so If I am to fix it I have to do it lying on the drivway . it is about -4C here but the wind is really howling. I have to put my car back together in the dark lying on my snow covered driveway .....
.... boy I love working on cars ...

See you guys tomorrow .. hopefully not in the Big Wing.

PS what is the best aproach from the 401 coming from Cambridge to the new place ?

I feel your pain. Years ago, my 1st house, ice-covered GRAVEL driveway . . .

I couldn't do it now. Hell, I paid $60 to an Audi dealer to put on 4 snows that I could have done for $0. But it was cold & the Pcar was still filling the garage . . .

Good luck.

Sadly, once again, I don't think I will be able to make it. I got up at 330pm today, which means by the time I get there (10ish), say, leave (12ish), and get back (2ish) I will have been up for a considerable amount of time. I don't think I want to risk it. Who knows, maybe I will be feeling adventurous.
