    I havent really decided yet. Ive done both. Last time I was at Westiva I went back on the number 3. It was about 40 degress celcius. Rolling the window down was like blowing a hair dryer in your face.

      I might make it this year. Still a little early for me to commit though.

      It's been done before.

        Yeah, but you have to have a passport to re-enter the US, and Canada wont let you in without one.

            US Passport is $120 or less

            If you are a U.S. citizen, find out how to apply for a new passport or renew an existing one.


            Still lots of time to apply

            We'd love to see some more folks from the US join us at the meet. I know gottafesty from Wyoming is thinking about it.

            Here's a few distances for you...

            - about 30 minutes from Banff
            - just under an hour from Calgary
            - about an hour from Lake Louise

            - 800 miles from Boise, ID
            - 375 miles from Spokane, WA
            - 385 miles from Great Falls, MT
            - 880 miles from Casper, WY

            - 400 km from Edmonton AB
            - 860 km from Regina SK
            - 720 km from Saskatoon SK
            - 870 km from Vancouver BC
            - 1420 km from Winnipeg MB

              Hmm. I'll think about it. I need to get my car fixed up a bit, and with a $200 a month car repair budget and two cars, it'll be awhile.
              I'll also have friends visiting this summer, so not too sure about scheduling.

                So I've already been to one of these meets, just didn't know it.

                I was definitely in the area at that time for both the previous meets, i vaguely remember seeing Zippy on the highway last year around sicamous, and then there's this:

                      I've spotted my cars in the background of quite a few pictures. it's really weird.

                      I even saw it in google street view at the dealership before I bought it!

                            Not sure yet. It'll depend on a few things, mainly my Lady.

                              Bring along your lady. It's a family oriented meet so the age spread is quite wide. Other plusses.... Wedge Pond is a beautiful spot and the Boulton Creek Store has great ice cream... even chocolate!

                              My wife will be there, as will Scott's.

                              See you there

                                Yeah, it's more a matter of whether she can get the time off. There are certain days she absolutely has to work, and the rest of her schedule is pretty flexible.
