Since big John is not around to organize this year, I figured I’d get the thread rolling.

I won’t be able to make this since I’ll have to be at the Cosy early enough to set up.

A good plan is to meet around 11am and leave as close to 12pm as possible.

The SQ1 parking lot, far across from Wal-Mart, is the typical meeting place.

## If anyone wants to step up and lead/organize this, please speak up.

**How to get to Square One?**

**[COLOR=“Red”]DIRECTIONS FROM THE EAST (Toronto, York, Durham, etc)[/COLOR]**

\*Get on the 401 WESTBOUND

\*EXIT at 403 (QEW via 403 to Hamilton)

\*Take 403 to HURONTARIO (HWY 10)

\*EXIT at HURONTARIO (HWY 10)

\*Turn LEFT (SOUTH) onto Hurontario

\*Continue on Hurontario past the other set of 403 offramp lights

\*IMMEDIATELY AFTER the traffic lights, make a right down the ramp onto RATHBURN

\*Continue on Rathburn past the first set of lights and make a left into the parking area. You should see the group of 240s and people by now.

**DIRECTIONS FROM THE WEST (Hamilton, Halton, Peel, etc)**

\*Get on the QEW EASTBOUND

\*EXIT at 403

\*Take 403 to HURONTARIO (HWY 10)

\*EXIT at HURONTARIO (HWY 10)

\*Turn RIGHT (SOUTH) onto Hurontario

\*IMMEDIATELY AFTER the turn, make a right down the ramp onto RATHBURN

\*Continue on Rathburn past the first set of lights and make a left into the parking area. You should see the group of 240s and people by now.

* * *

**How to get to The Cosy (where the meet is) in St. Catharines?**

\*Follow the map below to get onto the 403 WESTBOUND toward Hamilton

\*403 merges with QEW to become 403/QEW

\*The highways SPLIT UP in Burlington, right after the Brant St exit

\ ***KEEP LEFT** and follow the **QEW** toward Niagara

\*Stay on the QEW until you reach St Catharines

\*In St Catharines, get off at LAKE ST

\*Turn right at the end of the offramp (this puts you on Dunlop for two seconds)

\*Turn right again at LAKE ST. You will cross over the highway on a bridge.

\*Follow Lake St for 1 minute and you’ll see the Cosy on the left side

\*Address is **361 Lake St, St Catharines**

We need people to step up and film this in HD video…

–

Absolutely no racing, stunting, illegal passing etc.

use your blinkers to signal turns, allow 2 chevrons between cars whatever… be safe…

you know that this event will not be a secret to OPP or NRP so be smart.

I have a film producer coming in the backseat of a mazda6 w/ a 9g HD camera.

It will be recorded 100%

But if your exceeding speeds of 130 chances are you aren’t going to be on the film due to the fact myself and others want to go home that night.

If no one else wants to, I don’t mind organizing. I can be there at 11, and I know how to get to Bing’s.

Having a few people that know where they’re going is a good idea.

BRING 2way RADIOS.

I’ll put up a map closer to the date to give people a rough idea of where they are going. Please print one if you aren’t sure where you’re going.
