21 DSMs got together and 17 DSMs went as far as Hope Slide, BC.

I really enjoyed the company and cars!

Thanks to the members and organizers who made the 2022 tour a great turn out. Drivers brought their partners & families - some brought their parents. People brought their cars by ferry and by long roads.

As well, thanks to Loré for taking a sub-group of members through the "new" twisty sections before Harrison Hot Springs. Yes, we showed up late for lunch, but it could help explain the big, shit-eatin' grins on our faces.

Great chatting about which after-market radiators to avoid, 48 volt electric-turbos (this is do-able, someone do it!), paint jobs, seeds of ideas of the next upgrade and putting faces to FBook names.

Everyone meet at BCIT Parking lot off Willingdon/deer lake parkway area around 7:45- 8am  ( far end of the lot).  We will be heading out around 8:30 am and head down Willington, into burnaby and then to Hastings street where we head east through Coquitlam, then to the value village parking lot in maple ridge on dewdney trunk rd. From there we go the back way up dewdney trunk road, up through the mountains and over the stave lake reservoir. And down the mountain road, into Mission where we meet at the chevron gas station.  From there we go to the back way to Harrison hot springs for lunch at the Old Settler Pub.  After lunch we go to the hope slide ( travel through hope the back way on highway #7).

SEE YOU THERE!!!

Out of curiosity, how many active dsmer's are there still in BC that would actually come out for the meet?
I know you guys have a Facebook group but I'm not on FB so have no clue how many there still are.

When in Aug is it exactly? I might come out for it depending on the date. This will probably be my last summer here in BC before I move permanently to SoCal.
