June 23 sounds like it may work here too. Just chasing down a check engine light right now. Hopefully nothing major.

I'd love to make it but I'm having all sorts of issues with the car. Installed KW V3 and my front 19"x8.5" ET 40 hits the spring perch...so spacers...problem now with the 12.5mm spacers is my 245 wide front tire hits the fender liner so now I need camber and a 235 tire and a tighter custom spacer that I'll have to fab. Worst part of it (and shit happens) the mechanic who installed my rear KW Shocks didn't line up the rear driver side correctly so the shock reservoir tank hit the frame on test drive...just by a millimeter but enough to make it leak...so that's off in KW California to get repaired...long story short...the car won't be ready by the 23rd. Everyone enjoy and hope to see some pics

Miracles happen! Did you check ECS for spacers? Call KW and pretend that the world will end if they can't rebuild them in time for 23rd. Tell them winter starts on the 24th in Canada. Who knows, those Californians are naive about winter.

I tried...on top of it all and I dont know why as I wasn't requesting warranty work on the shock...they made me pull part numbers a off all struts/shocks and the kit number b4 even accepting the shock for allowing me the privilege to pay to fix it...not saying they are "difficult " but was not expecting that...

Based on the input from Glen this is what I have come up with. MUSKOKA SUMMER CRUISE MAP

It does seem a bit long so some input on scaling it back I'd welcome, just under 500KM and 6hrs of total driving time. Idea was the following;
  • 8:30 Meet for breakfast somewhere in Vaughn close to the 400 (I just google and came up with Boom Breakfast)
  • 9:30 Leave to meet up in Barrie ON ROUTE with those that didn't come to breakfast
  • 10:15 arrive at Barrie ON ROUTE
  • 10:30 leave for cruise
  • 1:30 lunch at Windermere House
  • 3:00 leave for leg home
  • 5:00 arrive at ON Route Esso on 400 before Canada's Wonderland

I was thinking maybe we can stop for lunch earlier somewhere and on the way back stop somewhere for ice cream or snack?

Eliminating Huntsville will reduce the the route.
So you would cut the corner on the north end of the trip
From Rosseau follow 141 towards bent river then to windermere house.
The road from rosseau to huntsville could be a little rough as well btw
Muskoka road 38 through the indian reserve will be nice. The rest of the route will be really nice and twisty

OK I adjusted which cut about 40 mins off so now we'd end up at lunch around 12:45 or so.

I live in Vaughan. boom is a great choice but sometimes can be busy too. Across the Hwy at Vaughan Mills, there's also Sunset Grill as an option.

Route looks good. As of right now, I'm in !!

Here you go... please RSVP here

Also I've been looking at the restaurant locations and noticed that Windermere house is not directly on the water. I think it would be nice to be on the water so I'm still researching a bit but found this Pizza place "PIE" at the Clevland House that is right over the water. You guy OK with Pizza or want more of a restaurant that server pub food like burgers steak etc.... Let me know

My wife is wondering how many other better halves are joining the trip. She's not the only significant other tagging along is she?
