I guess this where you'd probably want my feedback. Cruising ... nice sites in Windsor? Haha ... then it would probably be Riverside Drive (to see the Detroit skyline and the Casino). There would probably include a ride along Ouellette Ave (nightlife). That's about it ... if you want to cruise at night. On second hand ... not much to see during the daytime either. Haha.

There's a BBQ available for us to use on site.

general public. I would recommend that you bring your own charcoal" (City of Windsor - Amanda Murray)

Yeah, I was hoping you would chime in.

I don't really know my way around Windsor even though I do live a stone's throw from it, basically. Haha.

But the Riverside Drive sounds good, and I remember Ouellette. Every time I've gone to Windsor, I ended up being drunk at one location or another on Ouellette.

WHAT: A BBQ. Everyone brings a bit of food, kind of like a pot luck.

WHEN
: April 22



1. dragonlord (Steve) - Condiments, Chips, Dips
2. Pure Adrenaline (Rob) - Charcoal, Lighter fluid, Tongs, a football, Drinks
3. derrick (Derrick, duh )
4. VB87 (Anthony) - Burgers, Wings, Buns

Maybe put that info in the first post here (if dragonlord or mod can edit it). Or even make a new thread for it so no one is confused and so no one has to read 4 pages to get the real info.

I feel like you MI people always go through this with every thread.

Maybe there's a reason to why you've never gone over ... Windsor is the 'sin city' of Canada. There was a big stink about it during Superbowl time. Ask PA what I'm talking about ... or maybe we can give you a tour of what we're talking about ... haha.

I need to check this thread more often,.........what the heck am I supposed to bring????

If we are allowed beer I could bring some I guess,...........or I could just bring some anyway hehe. Thoughts???,....opinions???

Just to make sure things are not overlooked,..........who is bringing cheese,.......is that included under condiments,.....or with buns? We should double check that,.........if we are having burgers, hotdogs, sausages,..........that we have buns for each.

Good call on meeting at the McDonalds just off the hwy Anthony. Is that before or after Guelph??? I always forget even though I have driven past it a million times going to, and coming from, Waterloo. You are talking about the one that has another Mcdonalds and petro directly across on the other side of the hwy right.

We should let Ryan out in Hamilton/Stoney Creek know about the meet too.

It's right away Guelph, there's one directly across each other on the highway. First exit AFTER Exit 295 - Guelph.

What time of day will we be meeting at? Sometime around 2pm?

I'd like to go, but I dont know my schedule for saturdays usually until early that week. If I dont have anything going on, which I probably wont I'll try to make it out. Probably just stay there in Windsor and party it up with the gf.

I'll bring some pop/food if I come, but I dont want to commit to anything right now since I'm not sure if i'll be coming.

And I dont think it matters if its the 15th or 22nd for me, so either is fine.

And yeah, lots of funs nekkid bars in Windsor, maybe catch a midday peek?

I have no idea,..........what time are ppl meeting in Windsor? We should meet like 2.5hr before that or something. I can meet up with Ryan at Sherway or something (and other TO ppl) and then we can drive out and meet up with you at the McDonalds on the way. ???

Sometime around there is good. Just not too early in the morning because we need a few hours to make a drive out there.

I thought we were meeting you at that McDonalds??????????

We would just pull off at that rest stop and you would join our convoy for the drive down.

I just thought it'd be too much of a hassel for you guys to stop and go again.

If you guys are meeting VB87 at the McDonalds along the 401, then maybe I should meet you there too. It only makes sense because that way I'm not 45km driving east out to Sherway and then driving west on the 401 to Windsor. It would be better for me to go up Hwy 6 to Guelph and hop on the 401 right there with VB87. Agreed?

Let me know what time I should be there for and give me an idea of where along the 401 the rest stop is (I think I know where it is from the Honda-Tech meets in Kitchener, but not 100% sure).

That makes it better for the both of us. The rest stop is maybe 8km once you get onto the 401. Once the meet time in Windsor is finalized, we should meet up along the 401 about 3 hours before.

Good call Ryan,.....I dunno what the heck I was thinking suggesting that you meet up with whoever at sherway. That makes no sense for you at all LOL. Like VB87 said, that Mcdonalds is really close once you get onto the 401 from hwy 6.

No, you cant come. Haha just kidding dude. If you are coming from TO like me, then you could met up with me and who ever else at Sherway Gardens Mall. Then we can head out and meet up with ryanhook and VB87 at the Mcdonalds rest stop off the 401 on our way.

SilverCL97,.........I guess it is easy for you to meet up with us at Sherway still? I am guessing there are roads you could take to the 401 that might be less driving for you though. Then you could meet up with everyone at Mcdonalds. Its your call for what you want to do.


Are we finalized on everything........I will start to PM ppl if we are. We just dont have a time right?

That was a fast response lol. I was thinking that the easiest place to meet up at sherway would be at Sears. You know how there is that covered parking area,......sort of like underground parking? We could just meet up under there,......far away from the building since no one really parks up there. Also, if we meet up at Sears it is close to where we hop onto the 427 to get up to the 401,.......so it would be quick too.
