Coe Hill-last call
 

I hope to see many of you at Coe Hill--there were some 30 MVs there last year---Greg

Hi Greg
Hope to see you Sunday. I got the DAF YA314 out of the barn and all gassed up ready to go. Brian Gough is back from PEI and thinks he will be able to drive up with me. This has to be the biggest parade in the smallest town in Canada. The only problem is I can't find the Dutch flag that Dirk gave me. I may only be able to fly Geoff's Ensign.
Cheers, Barry:salute:

Hi Greg
I am going again this year..Got the inlaws all lined up to attend also//..
Wouldn't miss it ..Great time by all and lots of fun..
Will be glad to see old friends..
Hope to see Stew Loy and MG Mary again...They are always fun to have around ..
Hope to see Bruce P and Geof and all the southern Ontario crowd..Jeff Caldwell and so many others..
It's bigger than ever ..Gotta bring the camera for some good pix..See you on Saturday..around noonish I think..
A super fun weekend that I look forward to every year.
Don't miss it..!!

Not sure I'll be there (hell of a long drive and only one car in the family), but I will if I can.

Alex, how long a drive is it from Ottawa and what's the fastest route? I know a couple of people up there who might be persuaded...

Not to be picky, but there's nothing wrong with that... :D

:cheers:

Jif
probably 3 hours at the speed limit...100KMH..(Includes peeing on porcillin and Tim Hortons stops)
Either down Hiway 7 and up to Coe Hill or down 17 to Renfrew and then down to Bancroft and on to Coe Hill..

I think 7 is a little faster if you get on the road at the right time..
Traffic sucks either way if it is the wrong time of day..
Hope to see you there..
Bring Pinkey.....

Rte. Ottawa to Coe Hill
 

Hwy.7 & N on 62 is probably shortest.--If you want a more interesting trip,good highway & probably less traffic Hwy 17 to Renfrew,Hwy 132 to Dacre,Hwy 41 to Denbigh,Hwy 28 to Bancroft & down 62 to 620 & Coe Hill--Greg
