Well I thought I'd start a thread where we can discuss everything that is going to be happening in terms of heading down for X Fest this year. I know its a little pre-mature, I mean we still have Grand Bend to go to but I'm pumped because i Know there is going to be a bunch of us this year lol.

so lets dicuss plans far a head of time so everyone knows and there's no excuses why people can't come.
when to head down? thursday or friday? depends on if everyone can take both days off work or just friday
where to meet? somewhere along the 403/QEW i would say. and if anyone's coming from the west (london) we could meet up around hamilton/stony creek area

When is the Grand Bend meet?

 

[blackx-runner]

11 hours is that all?
1100 miles and about 19hrs (according to google) if I decide to make the drive.
Flying is starting to sound like a good idea. :canada:

 

[Gators Taco]

I did Cordelle, GA to Guelph, ON last January comming back from the cruise. My wife almost kill me, 1056 miles in 18 hrs . You have to please to passengers. March break we did Atlanta to Guelph, a little shorter. You have your drive cut out for you from Cedar Rapid, IA

 

[blackx-runner]

I'll do 14-15 strait through, but 19 hours is pushing it. More than likely it will be another solo trip.

 

[Tunedx]

Good time to break that tremac t-56 in

 

[Gators Taco]

I drove big rig(tractor trailer), no log book in my X. You need Sirius or XM radio to make it that far. Crank the tune and go.....

[Phoenix]

I'll consider. I booked two weeks off of work in Sept, so I may be able to make it out..

Cept I may just fly my ass out there.. Anyone wanna donate!?

AHAH jk

 

[Gators Taco]

Calgary to Williamsport, not a bad trip at 3575 km and 3 days on the road. I drove from here to Calgary and stayed for 2 years.

 

[Phoenix]

Holy balls thats 1 day and 19 hrs for me.. sweet jesus murphy..

 

[SSSXR]

I know you can get deals from westjet being in calgary and all.

book a flight.


that is all.

 

[Phoenix]

That IS all.

Flights are cheap out there. Just looking now!

 

[Slywhitty]

I'm pretty sure I'm coming. Truck or not so add me to the list. Who wants to give me a ride if I have no truck? Lol

 

[Phoenix]

Fly out to Calgary and you can be my co-pilot

 

[Tunedx]

Not sure if I can attend

 

[Gators Taco]

It's not the price of the flight that's high it's the price of security( 265.00 from Toronto). I don't know what they charge in Calgary but Toronto, forget it I'll drive to Buffalo, NY to take a flight.
I would fly from Great Falls, Montana, a lot better.

 

[hottacoX]

Not sure if I can attend

hope you can bro!

As for details I am more inclined to make it a three day trip, drive on the Friday and shoot to get there for say 7 or 8 pm to catch a few beers. For me on this trip I am not planning on camping and looking for hotel details from Justin for sure.

whats the crew thinking?

 

[X-Pablo]

We'll I drove from Vancouver, B.C. to Albuquerque, NM, thru AZ then to Las Vegas, NV, to Bakersfield,CA back to Vancouver, B.C. , course we stayed overnite in some cities and a few days seeing brother in law in AZ and a few nights in Las Vegas.

I don't think i'll drive that far again, I used to drive Tractor Trailer throughout B.C., sucked being on road for 10days straight then home for 4 days.

Anyways, Virginia is a wee bit far for me to drive from B.C. , besides I'll be busy in September.
