hello folks!

I have arranged with Jayme of Legendary Motors Cars in Milton for a Fiero group tour
of their museum & awesome restoration facilities; tentative date will be Sat. Aug 15th at 10am.

I have driven past it a hundred times but finally dropped in to take a quick look & chat. I say wow on the collection I peeked at, tres cool!
Jayme says tour is not more than an hour. If more than 15 people, we can do another group tour at around 12 noon.

Here is their website: http://www.legendarymotorcar.com/


Afterwards, we are having our SUMMER 2015 URBAN FIERO ICE CREAM CRUISE!

details here:

WHAT: hook up with fello Fiero enthusiasts & fans for a leisure urban cruise from Mississauga, through Streetsville to Lakeshore Rd, through Oakville & Burlington, end up at Hutch's for food/ice cream.

Tour includes lakeshore & scenic areas, affluent estate home & nature areas, bridges. Usually some nice summer sites (ahem) to see. :shock:
Perhaps we can hit a local cruise night afterwards if anyone knows of one near our end point. :?:

WHEN: Saturday Aug 15th, 2015
TOUR TIME: meet up for LMC tour portion 9am, depart by 9;30am. 10am TOUR til approx. 11am if we are one group, or12noon to 1pm if we have a second group.
Then lunch somewhere after, people's choice.
CRUISE TIME: meet up cruise portion 3;30pm, depart by 4;00pm
WHERE: we will meet up in front of the old RONA parking lot (just past the East Side Marios) at the 401 & Winston Churchill exit.
(Whoever has attended the local cruise nights on Friday evenings should now where this is.)


official googlemaps addy is:

3135 Argentia Rd
Streetsville, ON L5N 8E1

cords: 43.597836,-79.788716

if that helps :mrgreen:


CRUISE ROUTE OVERVIEW:
Exit complex parking lot, turn Left at traffic lights & continue onto Argentia Rd, eastbound.
Turn Right at Turner Valley Rd,
continue on Mississauga Rd, through Streetsville all the way down to Lakeshore Rd.
Turn Right onto Lakeshore Rd, proceeding westbound.
Turn Left on Southdown Rd & continue on Lakeshore rd, going westbound.
Stay on Lakeshore rd. through Oakville, Bronte & Burlington tourist areas.
At the Maple ave, north shore blvd intersection in Burlington, turn Left in order to stay on Lakeshore rd. (see google maps for ref)
Turn left onto Eastport drive, under the Burlington skyway bridge.
Cross the cool lift bridge.
Turn left onto Beach Rd/blvd.
Turn left onto Van Wagner's beach rd.
Turn Left into Hutch's Parking lot.
End point.

We don't have to stick together as a pack on this cruise, as it's leisurely, so if we get split up (likely), we'll meet up again along the way or at Hutch's.
Also, if anyone lives closer to the end point, you can always meet us at Hutch's to hang or munch.


tadaaaaa!

I have been on that tour and it is pretty amazing! It's also a fabulous photo-op in front of the place.

They do ask for voluntary donations at the end. NOTHING IS FORCED!

And if you buy a T-Shirt the donation idea is waved.

FYI!

As for the cruise aspect it sounds damn near identical to the drive I took yesterday through Streetsville and back home here to Hamilton, LOL! (I was looking for the Mopar Spring Fling at the Chrysler plant, but they had the date wrong, DUH! It's the 31st.)

I will look into what Cruise Nights are happening. Some of them are year restrictive, some not.

Ya it's a Beretta but a damn rare one, LOL!

There's another surprise for this tour...
another car club will be joining our group for the morning tour.

Hint; they are also midengined, two door sport coupes!

Not sure I'll be able to make it after all.

Car isn't running well. Which is an upgrade from last week: not running at all.

I've started a thread on Pennock's for my 2.8 Miss/sputter/unwell sound. Feel free to PM or email me with any helpful suggestions. If I can get this running right, I'll be there Saturday.
