BMW Club "Last Ride" October 14, 2007

[niks325i]

The BMW Club of Manitoba is planning an event for Sunday, October 14th. It is called the "Last Ride". We will be meeting at Birchwood BMW at around 2:00 pm. There will be some time to hang out and meet new people before we head off for a cruise.

The plan is to head out from Birchwood to River Road north of the city. We will follow the scenic winding route of River Road to Lockport. Once at Lockport, we will head over the bridge to the Half Moon on Henderson Highway for burgers, socializing, and photos. From there we will head back down Henderson to the city.

It's going to be a great time! Mark it on your calendar today! Email Nik at editor@bmwpower.ca for more info.

Event sponsored by Fast Synthetics, Bavarian Autosport, and Speedworld!

Woul there be blood drawn if Audi ppl came?? :)

[niks325i]

I doubt it. I'll check with the directors. ;) I suppose that means that we'll have to let the rest of the riff-raff like the Porsche and Mercedes people tag along. LOL

What about the new WRX? :p

Hint: refer to the new TV ad.

What about Nissan and spouses and kids?

Sheesh, at least keep this to Euro content!! :)

Sheesh, at least keep this to Euro content!! :)
At least my Japanese car runs on a regular basis! :laugh: And the motor is French, which last time I checked is Euro. :cool:

And, according to the results is faster than a particular Euro car or two. ;)

[Burn]

"At least"? So, all you have going is reliability? My car runs just fine.. just not as fast as it should, it's a needy bitch, what can I say?

The 2 Audi's on track on Saturday smoked you by 2 and 4 seconds respectively... *cough* in raw times. The two Porsche's smoked you also.. the euro cars you managed to beat were a Mini, a 15 year old automatic BMW and a rookie.. oh and a 27 year old British car.

Impressive! hehehe :)
You're not relying on PAX are you? :D

Keep it to the smacktalk thread :)

Keep it to the smacktalk thread :)
Ok, I won't correct anything you say, so we can stay on topic...but...I didn't even notice the last two Euro cars that you mentioned. I just liked that I beat Nik on R's with me on streets. :D

Oh and you should try to stay consistent on the automatic thing. Is it a disadvantage or not:confused:

[Burn]

Hahaha... poor Nik, I've never said auto was an advantage or otherwise, but I was fast enough for a trophy when I drove one :)

See you at the gtg :D

Geez, thanks. I know the Spitfire is small, but your eyesight must really be going at your age to miss it entirely. :)

Ooopss...color that one an aged brain fart over the gargantuan size! :)
