Sept 21 Wine Festival Cruise

mike519 · 08-16-2013, 08:18 PM

Hi all,

Once again, time to plan for our wine fest cruise, this year on Sept 21. Similar route to last year with a couple of changes. Hoping to get eshine to agree to open for us with a discount as he was going to do last year (but had to cancel due to a car show).

This year, we are inviting Flower City Zs and others from the Western NY area...a number of them are interested. Should be a good group.

We are also looking to take some great shots in Niagara on the Lake before heading out to some winery tours or for those who just want to take off from there, that's OK as well.

Link to the event listing is here... http://www.zpost.com/forums/calendar...day=2013-09-21

Please let us know who to expect.

Looking forward to it!

Sounds great Mike!

searchdev · 08-17-2013, 12:33 PM

Thanks for organizing this Mike. Last year was fun and this year sounds even better. Can't wait!

inTgr8r · 08-17-2013, 03:57 PM

We will likely stay overnight and spend Sunday there as well.

....the google map isn't loading for me. (Maybe an iPad thing)

mike519 · 08-18-2013, 07:35 AM

Thanks Ian...map should be good now.

If you are going to stay overnight in NOTL or even Niagara, I would recommend booking now. For the festival it gets booked up really quick.

Chris at eshine has agreed to open for us and provide a discount so plan to pick up your detailing supplies on the cruise!

Mike,

Thanks for setting this up again. My wife and I had a great time last year and are looking forward to it again. We just need to sort out some business travel that each of us have, the week leading up to the tour. We will do our best to make it. Hopefully some of the US guys decide to join!

Hi Mike,
Almost positive my wife and I will make it, Coming from Buffalo, NY hopeful a few others from the flower City group will join in as well. I'll likely hook up with the group at the Peace Bridge.

Coolio!

mike519 · 09-03-2013, 09:26 PM

A little over two weeks! Who else is in?? Six cars so far...hoping for a few more!

inTgr8r · 09-04-2013, 03:16 PM

Would have thought we'd have a few more by now as well.

....I'm just hoping I have my car back on the road by then, may have to show up in the Subi

What are you doing to it Ian?

inTgr8r · 09-04-2013, 08:04 PM

Making more noise for one thing..

For the rest, lets just say it involves a can opener.

Ohhh, can't wait to see and hear it!

mike519 · 09-16-2013, 07:06 AM

Weather looks good for this Saturday! Who else is joining us?? Looks to be about 6 or 7 with our American brothers so far. Who else is in?

inTgr8r · 09-16-2013, 07:19 AM

I may be running a modified route.
Its looking like I may start out in Niagara Falls picking up my roof. (in the Subi)

searchdev · 09-19-2013, 08:29 AM

Sorry to say that I am out for Saturday's run. School comes first I'm afraid. Thesis is due September 30th and I can't afford the day off.

Have fun!

I know I know. It is not for lack of wanting to join you all. Next event I'm in. October 1st I am free man :-)

inTgr8r · 09-20-2013, 10:11 AM

too bad you cant make it, but understandable.
with the weather forecast its iffy for me too. (no roof)

NewZee · 09-20-2013, 07:11 PM

You all might already know this, but Mike pulled the plug on the Niagara on the lake , wine cruise, due to weather concerns. He said he'll reschedule for spring. hope you all might consider joining some of us New Yorkers for a drive here in the states some time. Check us out on Facebook "Flower City RoadsterZ" group (Coupes are more than welcome)!

mike519 · 09-21-2013, 10:02 AM

Yup, I messaged those still attending but thanks for the post Bill. As mentioned, would love to get down there for a cruise with you guys for a change of scenery!
