Vancouver meet up??
 

I have seen a meet up for Calgary and Toronto but never for Vancouver yet. Would anyone be interested in this?

Re: Vancouver meet up??
 

We had one once. 2008 I think it was.

Several attempts have been made since then, but nobody has the follow through to actually sort one out.

If it wasn't on a weekend, I would go to one, provided I had nothing else planned.

Seems trickier to get a Vancouver meet up sorted.....tricky bunch we seem to be....;)

Seems other cities seem to be able to organize one apart from this one lol I can do any time in the evenings or weekends although I think an evening would be better.

Us Pups would go if we were nearer- we are occasionally in Vancouver for educational stuff but not imminently- snag Oink- there must be loads living in Vancouver- get Tootle in- she would be a fun gal to have around if a little flatuating..

OI!!!!
When are you Mutts next due to visit civilisation? Maybe when you know we could arrange something around your visit.

Them Okanagists are scared of the Coquihalla between September and July...personally I think its just an excuse for not going anywhere. There's always shopping - why leave the big shopping mall?

Where's that Jamie Davis? (a supplier of ours knows him well and says he's a dickhead, by the way...)

???:confused:
Yep, the Wagon train don't take kindly to them steep highways until them snows are long garn. I prefer to fly!;)

Sadly no trips planned before Christmas Tootle, we were there a few weeks ago learning some stuff and seeing the big lights of the big city... They have cars and buses and everything- sadly nowhere to stable the horses for the night:lol:

The hwys in winter can be miserable, why drive them unless absolutely necessary?

Re: Vancouver meet up??
 

If I could afford to run a car here, I would drive any condition that is how much I miss driving that I am prepared to drive in snow :(

Maybe unlike Calgary or Toronto, not a lot of us live in metro Vancouver (house prices maybe the reason :lol:)

Re: Vancouver meet up??
 

I've gone to Vancouver twice and tried to get BEer's to go for a drink and couldn't so don't count on easy success.

Re: Vancouver meet up??
 

Perhaps you could entice them with one of your breakfasts. I'm sure Oink would be keen.

I guess I have met my quota of snow driving and just don't do it unless an absolute necessity, which for us going to the interior would never be and can always wait for better summer weather...:lol:

Maybe if we had a good snow car, but even with winter tires, Mazda 2's are not great in the snow and the one day we got last winter of snow, one thing was consistent, getting stuck because of low clearance to the ground.... Winter tires seemed to be of no help.

Plus considering how poorly our little car does climbing the hills on the sea to sky, I am not even sure I want to take up the Coq.....:lol:

Re: Vancouver meet up??
 

Take Hwy 3 or the old Hwy 1, they're great.

Re: Vancouver meet up??
 

I would.....I like the more scenic routes, and if I am taking a road trip, I take my time and stop along the way. But I just hate winter driving and snow, so I do my road trips in the summer...Won't venture far from the coast in the winter unless flying or taking the train.
