Well the time has come to plan out the FVT for this current year.
It will be a difficult year for me to make work on the last week of July, as my 3rd baby is due july 26th.
But even if I am unable attend, I'm sure there will be others that can take my place. When do you guys think for a date? It has to be on a Sunday, so it accommodates as many people as possible with their day off.

Congrats mang, know if it's a boy or girl?
-
Sunday, 24th.
Congrats Brett!!!
-
I vote the first weekend in august after the long weekend. August 6.
-
imma do my best to make it this year lols. gonna be doing some work on the car around june so hopefully it'll be ready :D :D :D
-
Long as it's a Sunday and not a Saturday, my car will finally be there :)
-
Yeah. It will be sunday as per usual.
It's a boy!! Well from the ultrasounds technician said she could tell for sure anyways, but they always say not 100% haha
This will be my 3rd kid, already have 6 year old daughter (danika) and 3 yeara old son (Mattias)
-
Can't be the weekend of August 13-14, My son Matt is getting married
-
August 7th???
-
August 7th???
...I like Aug 7th.. :) +1 on the vote for Aug 7
-
I can do August 7th, as long as it is not the weekend of the 13th - Matt's getting married
-
Okay, so August 7th works then,
Now as some of you know, I have a baby due in the end of july, and am currently doing a massive renovation project on my house (haha great timing, I know). anyways I am finding it hard to set time aside for the planning of the tour this year. Wondering if some people can help out on setting it up and organizing it this year. I don't plan on doing the usual food/BBQ/Raffle thing (unless someone wanted to set that up) Anyways probably best bet would be to just go out for lunch at one of the local resturants at Harrison hot springs. I know we have done this years previous as well, and it was always enjoyable.
Let me know if you can help out. Thanks.
-
lunch at a restaurant is fine for me, great time the last time we did it, and maybe the restaurant we choose would have a great parking lot like last time....reserved.......
-
orrrr..... maybe we change it up a bit and after the run from Maple Ridge to Mission we could stop at my place and have lunch. we can do up a bbq thing, and then don't have to worry about set up or clean up cause it will all be here already. (Assuming there is money for some hotdogs and stuff)
Also, I would like to plan to take the lead from Maple Ridge to Mission and in doing so will add a bit of flavour to the route. And by flavour, I mean a slight variation to the norm.
Aug 7th. works for me and I will put in a raffle prize if we do decide to do that.
-
i have my car, i'm excited :x
-
Like Travis' suggestion 8)
-
+2 ....for Travis's BBQ place.....maybe we can see all your spare parts.

-
Travis. let me know if you want any help at your place. I wont be going on the tour as i don't have a dsm anymore. I would be willing to help in the other areas however. I am good at logistics and getting you supplies.

Okay guys so the big FVT meet is coming up this weekend. We will meet in the bcit parking lot around 9am. Going to be a bit later then usual as we have changed the lunch location to Travis Koch's place instead of Harrison. We will drive the usual route from bcit through coquitlum, maple Ridge, head up the mountain road past the reservoir and down to mission chevron. From there we will follow travis Koch on a backroad twisty to his house for the lunch. Bring some cash for bbq and food at his place it will be just by donation this year to make things easy. From there we will take the usual route, but instead of going to Harrison we will continue on to hope and the hope slide and stop to meet up across the street from the chevron/white spot just before the highway to hope/Princeton and the hope slide meeting point for pictures.

Okay! See you guys tomorrow morning! Travis has all the food and drinks ready for lunch in Mission tomorrow. Lunch will be by donation to make things easy for everyone. After lunch we will head up to the Hope slide for pics! Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow :D
