November 6th midnight cannonball run vancouver
On November 6th bcrotary.com is creating a meetup and run from the colossus in walnut grove/langley at 11:30pm. Everyone is going to then cruise up to the Ikea in coquitlam and then to Brentwood mall in burnaby and finally park royal in north Vancouver. Anyone is invited so long as they are respectful. Come on lower mainlanders I need some other 8's to join the party. Here's a linky http://www.bcrotary.com/showthread.p...Cannonball-Run

Quoted from the first post of the thread:
Alright, you guys have been pestering me long enough to have another meet so here we are. We're gonna try something different this time, it'll take a bit more but it's going to be fun as all hell. We're going to do a Cannonball Style run from Langley all the way to North Vancouver with stops along the way in Coquitlam and Burnaby.
Some of the locations are going to have alternate meeting points in case of rain because you never know what's going to happen around here. The first meeting place will be in Walnut Grove at Colossus like previous meets have been. If the weather isn't cooperating there is a covered parking lot across the street from the north end of the parking lot at the Sportplex. It is clearly viewable from the usual meeting place in the Colossus parking lot so it should be easy enough to find for those of you unfamiliar with the area. We will all meet up there at 11:30pm and hang out, say our hellos and fraternize for 15 minutes while we wait for any stragglers before we head to the next meeting point.
The second meeting point will be at Ikea in Coquitlam again. There is both covered and uncovered parking there so the weather won't bother us there again. Anyone from that area that doesn't feel like making the trek out to Langley can meet up with each other there. We are planning to have our Langley caravan there by approximately 12:15am. Since anyone meeting up there will already have had time to hang out and chit chat we will wait for 5 minutes for any stragglers and then depart to our 3rd destination.
The 3rd location will be in Burnaby. If the weather is nice we can meet in the Brentwood Mall parking lot. Unfortunately to my knowledge there isn't any underground parking there so the backup plan is just down the street where Still Creek Dr. passes underneath Willingdon Ave, there's enough room to park some cars on the side of the street and not interfere with traffic. Attached is a map of the general location. If anyone has a better idea of a nearby covered place for us to meet in case of rain please PM me the location because posting your ideas in the thread just causes discussion and criticism and we don't need that cluttering up the thread. If all goes according to plan then we should be there by about 12:35pm.
After we pick up the last group of people there it's off to our final location. Park Royal Shopping Mall in North Vancouver. Once there we can all park in a big group and talk more and share stories about different ways our money pits have hurt us and how we still love them for some unknown reason.
Bring your cameras, bring your friends if you want. Other cars are welcome to join if they want but are expected to be respectful as well as us. I understand we all get together and people will want to have some fun and what not, that's fine. Just don't be an idiot, don't put yourself in a position where you can harm another member or their car and don't bring any negative attention to us.
