Not unusual, 61k and LOTS of track time.
This why I do oil sample testing. If I make the cruise, I'll bring a report with me so that you can see what they're like. I really hoping to still make it as it will be a good way to give her a gentle run

I'm hoping to make it as well...I generally work 6 days a week but I'll see what I can do. Would be cool to see a bunch of other Z4Ms...also, I've only put a pathetic 200km on the car since taking it out for the season...

OK so I copied the Moto map that Vice suggested which you can find here.
Personally I think this is a bit long especially with breakfast, lunch, and a stop here or there. Let me know what you guys think and I can adjust it for you. Route KM TIME Section A 66 1:03 Section B 25 0:32 Section C 52 0:49 Section D 55 0:56 Section E 55 0:46 Section F 14 0:18 TOTAL 267KM 4:24Hrs <---- That's just drive time

There's a Car show Saturday at the Beer Store in Fort Erie (Central & Garrison) a couple of us locals could meet you there and do the leg up the Niagara Parkway to Lyons Creek; let me know an ETA and we'll have a couple of Coupes there. There's a Tim Hortons and a Wendy's across the street.

OK How about this: From Hamilton to Fort Erie 105KM in about 1:45 mins. If we met for breakfast at 8:30-9:00 somewhere in Hamilton then started to drive at around 9:45-10:00 we'd be in Fort Erie at 11:45am, stretch our legs by checking out this car show Caddyshk is talking about and have some lunch. Start the journey back at 1:00-1:30 and end back in Hamilton at 3:30pm. Now on the leg back what would you guys think about driving straight though Niagara Falls to Niagara on the Lake? I know it would be busy but I think it be cool and an experience to have a train of Zeds cruise by the falls. I'd have to see what map it out and see how long it be but just a thought. Start Ridge Road 58KM 0:57:00 Welland Tunnel 21KM 0:23:00 QEW to Fort Erie 26KM 0:17:00 105KM 1:37:00 Route Back Fort Erie To Welland 55KM 0:56:00 Welland to Smthville 55KM 0:46:00 Final Stretch 14KM 0:18:00 124KM 2:00:00

OK so here is the alternate Fort Erie to Niagara Falls, Niagara on the Lake, Port Dalhousie, then stop for a break at either the Ship Wreck off QEW or Tim Horton's just down the road. Then final stretch on the QEW to Hamilton.
If we require to shorten this leg hopping on the HWY at an earlier point is always an option. Alternate Route Back Fort Erie to Niagara Falls 32KM 0:40:00 Niagara Falls to Tims 53KM 1:02:00 Tims to Hamilton (on HWY) 40KM 0:22:00 125KM 2:04:00

[QUOTE=Cyclops;21730663]I'm starting to think that Fort Erie might be a good place for lunch. Ever been at the at "The Barrel" Italian Kitchen?
We get delivery from there; never been inside. Looks like I have 3 local Coupes to join from Fort Erie (Beer Store Car Show).

I met a new coupe owner (imola) over the weekend in T.O. and he mentioned that he did the Rennlist Niagara cruise so I'm looking over it right now to see what we could use from that route. Just wondering if you guys want to do breakfast or just meet up and start driving at 9:30-10:00?

Please RSVP
OK here is the final map,
it's roughly 4hrs broken down 2hrs from Hamilton/Grimsby to Fort Erie and 2hrs from Fort Erie to Grimsby with an opportunity to Pit-stop at a Tims/Petro in each leg. Each leg has a mix of rural and HWY driving. Let me know what you guys think. Please RSVP here so I know how many are coming and I can make proper reservations at breakfast and lunch. Please make sure to say if you are all by your lonesome or with a guest. THE PLAN Here is how I envision the day:
Useful tools and apps for keep us together. Maps: download MyMaps from the Google Play store and follow the route. ZPOST 2017 Niagara Cruise (GTA) Keeping in touch: Turn your smartphone into a walkie talkie. Download and install Zello, sign up is quick and painless. Connect to channel Z4GTA (http://zello.com/z4gta) I'll be logged in to the channel if you wanted to test it out prior 10am-6pm daily. Both apps are available on the Android platform but not sure as to Apple.

This looks great. I will probably meet up with you north of Fonthill, near the Sawmill GC - keep an eye out for an IB Roady.
BTW in my previous post I mentioned that several of the on/off ramps on the 406 were closed for construction......I meant to say the QEW ☹️. I had a Nexus interview in Ft Erie last week and the first three interchanges were closed. This doesn't affect your planned route though - just wanted to correct the error. See you Saturday. Stuart
