Default Fall meet & cruise

I can feel winter coming so maybe we could go for a nice cruise up to Saint-Sauveur...fall is the best time to cruise downthere with the landscape and its not too far also.

Who's in?

This weekend I would prefer October 10 but depending on the weather...maybe next weekend October 24 or 25. One thing I will not cruise when its raining or below 15.

I hear that! I totaled my first S-car in '03 because I was driving in both heavy rain and temps below 15'C. Hydroplaned on those summer performance tires that were, of course, rock-hard in the 8'C. ambient temperature on an October morning as we were returning from the Fall Colors meet in Maryland that year. Hard lesson to learn, but I'm much more cautious now with my second S2000.

Problem is, that may put a big restriction on any all-day drives in the Laurentians on any days remaining in this season. Temps are not likely to be above 15 until well into the day, if at all.

I agree...weather is always colder downthere...but with the sun we should be fine.

We always get a couple of hot days during October so I think ill postponed the cruise until next weekend hoping to get better weather bc so far its rain all weekend for this weekend.
