Fraser Valley Tour - Abby, Wack, Mission
« on: May 12, 2003, 02:18:44 pm »
Hey guys that dont wanna drive all the way out to Coq and meet up in Mission, Matt and I have planned for me to lead from Wilson Rd on through Mission and back out to the highway.  Im going to stay in contact with Matt as they come along Dewdney and cut them off infront, if anyone wants to meet up with me, I will be at Silver City in Mission at 10:00, depart at about 10:15.

If everyone can meet me their that doesnt wanna go all the way out, I will fly you guys up the back road and meet up with them at Wilson Rd.

Please put in here if you are meeting at Silver City parking lot, it will be infront of Timmy Hoho's.

Travis, why don't you meet all of us when we stop at McDonalds in Maple Ridge?  That way you can join us down dewdney the entire way.

I'll go with Trav, I can meet in Mission or Maple ridge.  But Maple ridge means an earlyier leav-home time for me.  I'd have to get up at 7 or so to make Maple Ridge by 10.  But it can be done, its only once a year.

Lets wait and see what the Fraser Valley people say.

I want to say it would be worth it, but what would I know.  I live 300 meters from Lougheed Mall.  To meet at 9:00 I have to get up at 8:30.  :twisted:

I like Jeffs idea to have Travis meet at the McDonalds, but if not, it is no big deal.  I know where we have to go and where Travis and others will be meeting us.

Well driving all the way to McDonalds is pointless, its a 30 minute drive for us to drive back on a bumpy dewdney trunk road with 3 turns at the end.  I have it all worked out where we will take over, just meet up in Mission cause it will be a lot quicker and easier for us guys way out here.  Unless someone really wants to meet at McDonalds, remember from where we meet in back of Mission its only about a 10-15 minute drive until we gas up at Chevron, so we can all chat their for a little while.

Cole, I'm gonna try to come down on thursday, if I can make the appropriate arrangements.   I really want to hit the test and tune on friday in Mission.

Travis,  I probably will meet you in Mission at the Silver City at 1015am,  but I can't entirely nail down my itinerary at this time.......
