The new GTG in the GTA every Saturday morning 10 AM: July 2021 UPDATE
 

July 2021 Update: The GTG will resume on Saturday July 17th, 2021 as Ontario enters Step 3 of reopening; which allows outdoor gatherings of up to 100 people. Please respect all Stage 3 COVID-19 Safety protocols, particularly when venturing inside the Starbucks. When in doubt, wear a mask.

Changes to gathering limits

As of July 16, 2021, the new gathering limits are:

• Indoor social gatherings and organized public events for up to 25 people
• Indoor dining with no limits to the number of patrons per table
• Retail with capacity limited to ensure physical distancing
• Outdoor social gatherings and organized public events for up to 100 people

Summer location meets start the 3rd Saturday in April (weather permitting) or first week of May. Exact start date will be posted in a separate thread.

Location is within easy access of major highways and can provide a good start point for Fun Runs afterwards.

SUMMER LOCATION (May to November)
SATURDAYS 10 am: Starbucks Ridgeway Drive (please gather in the lot behind the Starbucks!)
3235 Dundas St W Unit #1, Mississauga, ON L6J 4Z3


This is where Terry's SOLHA (Southern Ontario Long Hood Association) meets have been happening from 9:30 am. East of the 403 / Dundas interchange on the North side . (West of Winston Churchill)
Plenty of excellent parking, but stay close to the North West Corner of the parking lot away from the main Brick lot. Short walk across the lot to the Starbucks and washrooms.
This location is easily accessible from either the QEW, 403, 401, Dundas , as well as the 407. All generations of Porsches and people are welcome!

Funny the first map address for Tim Hortons came up as Ottawa on my screen.... I'm honoured you guys are driving all the way here. I'll be sure to make it out to this one!

Ah, ok, never mind then.

Phil,thanks for organizing this.

Thanks...Can't wait..

Nice to try a few places before we fix on one. I want to see how far and accessible each location is.

check out the Michael's at 170 North Queen. I know the owner of the property and can ensure no hassle.

Good to know! I was thinking that that side of the lot might be better and not as exposed.

I wonder who the last part is directed at....:icon107:

May try and make it out for one but do you ever meet then drive? Or no good routes out that way (I am in the east end)?

Vern I come from Cambridge so if I can get there and Will can, then I think most people can
Phill all those locations sound feasible to me and hope to meet you guys there even if my car isn't on the road yet.

Great job !!

Don't waste your breath

Vern,

Yup, many drives have started out from the GTGs in the past. We've also used the old location as a meeting point when heading to the tracks (TMP and the now defunct Dunnville) for those who wanted to convoy down. If you want to organize one, by all means do so. There really isn't any formality with these meets as anyone whose ever attended can attest.

For some of us like myself & Clive, part of the drive is getting there. :D

Cool, the 403/Dundas location is close by for me.

FYI, a lot of bikers and JDM guys meet right there on the south side of dundas at the tim horton's. They don't usually get out that early, but the few times I've gone to grab a coffee, there's always a few who start driving like clowns. Lot's of cops up and down Dundas (especially west of the 403), so just be careful.
