Re: OFFICIAL Portland/ Vancouver Spring Drive June 9th SIGN UP!
I'm getting excited too, it's been too long, almost 8 months! (of course it will probably be even longer for me after that unless anyone wants to drive WAY south )
Here's what I think the list is looking like as of now? Remember, those that sign up here get a little bonus. 1.) Shadabob (Erik & Jill) 2.) Mark +1 3.) Nate 4.) Mr. & Mrs. Fuddman 5.) Troy +1 6.) Earl 7.) Le

Re: OFFICIAL Portland/ Vancouver Spring Drive June 9th SIGN UP!
Quick Question, What kind of interest would their be in Voodoo doughnuts being brought to the start point? I wouldn't have a problem picking some up and heading out early.

Re: OFFICIAL Portland/ Vancouver Spring Drive June 9th SIGN UP!
Hi guys,
Just some last minute stuff. In the process of setting up this drive, we didn't have a plan on how to get back to Vancouver, so the last portion of the drive has been in flux. A really cool extra stop was also added, which surely everyone will enjoy. To get to this place also allows for some more nice driving roads to be included. The total drive will be fourteen miles longer now. We will print out detailed instructions which will be nice to have, though not totally necessary, as it will be hard to get separated, you'll see. This drive includes a major portion of the old highway, so maybe we should call it: The Old Ways Drive. Also, there will be a quiz at the end. Here it is, so that you can start thinking about it: What's Missing? I've heard rumors of rain, so a jacket might be needed. There is a small amount of hiking involved, but not too much. We will be stopping for snacks at one point. And none of the stops require passes. Dinner will be provided, just hamburgers, hotdogs and stuff. I think that just about does it. Oh, did I hear Voodoo doughnuts? Cool! See ya, Mark |

Re: OFFICIAL Portland/ Vancouver Spring Drive June 9th SIGN UP!
Thanks for the update, all sound great!
And you just couldn't resist doing something fun like a "quiz" with such an ambiguous question!

Re: OFFICIAL Portland/ Vancouver Spring Drive June 9th SIGN UP!
I will have to bow out. The only SVX that has insurance and licensed just developed an issue. I can get tabs and insurance on one before tomorrow, so can't make it. I can't believe that I have all of the SVXs and can get one on the road! Dang.

Re: OFFICIAL Portland/ Vancouver Spring Drive June 9th SIGN UP!
Sorry to hear, Earl.
Meet Monster has been hitting you hard this year (and/or scheduling issues, not sure if that falls under the MM category or not). Hopefully I'll see you at Dabob one of these years. Or possibly sooner if I have anything to liquidate you are interested in.

Re: OFFICIAL Portland/ Vancouver Spring Drive June 9th SIGN UP!
Will do Earl! As I was telling all the guys yesterday, Dabob is a good time of year and location that would work out well with visiting my parents, so hopefully I/we will be able to attend that every few years or so.
Thanks to Mark and Erik for putting on a great drive and meet, as usual. A lot of fun roads I'd never been on before and cool scenery, even in the overcast parts. And thanks Mark for letting everyone end the drive at your house for BBQ, it was a nice touch to end the meet on and give more time for socializing in an easy atmosphere (and having Erik's old car there to pick apart was a bonus social activity ). It was a nice send-off for me and reminder of how I'm going to miss having such great friends to enjoy these cars with a few times a year. But sounds like there is a lot of enthusiasm to keep things going and I'll be able to hook up again when I'm in the area (and vice versa ). Keep up the great work, and hope to see everyone around in the future!

Re: OFFICIAL Portland/ Vancouver Spring Drive June 9th SIGN UP!
Firstly, Thank you Mark for generously hosting and putting together this ride. It was very entertaining and roads were surprisingly fun. Not to mention the food was a added bonus. Just glad I didn't get lost.
Troy, It was nice to meet you and I can see why you are going to be missed! I hope your ECU stayed put for your drive home. Hope to have another meet sometime soon!

Re: OFFICIAL Portland/ Vancouver Spring Drive June 9th SIGN UP!
Hi Guys,
Glad that everything worked out so well. We've put on nicer drives, with cooler destinations, but this one was my favorite for the roads also. The light rain helped, as the next day was sunny and full of vehicles, not all spirited. The infamous "Sunday Drivers", in other words. As for the license plate frames for the lucky winners of The Quiz, and Troy, the limits on letters and spaces is: twelve on the top, and twenty on the bottom. You don't have to rush in getting back with me on this. I always take a long time contemplating, so will understand. But when you do, just PM, I'll check back from time to time and don't mind making a couple of trips as the shop is close by. Until then, see ya soon, Dabob or maybe the Subaru meet in Port Townsend. Mark |
