Buddy, you read my mind. I can't stands it no more! the rain has stopped and we gots to cruise somewhere!!!!!!!

While I would love to do Niagara, (haven't done it yet all year!) This weekend might not be the best time for it, with the US and Canadian holidays, (TRAFFIC nightmare!) plus I heard the coppers are cracking down on "agressive drivers" in the Niagara area this weekend. Not that we are aggressive, but I'm sure they'd love to bust a whack of Vettes, would make a great visual news story.

But I'll cruise there if everyone wants. or anywhere else!

Funny you should say that about Niagara area.. I live down in Grimsby. I just came in off the QEW where they are sitting just in the Ontario st gulley. They even had an unmarked gold Malibu with tinted windows about .5 mile further down with all it's concealed flashers going with someone pulled over. I would never of guessed it was OPP if the flashers weren't going
We will keep an eye on the thread and see what developes

Doing a GM event this weekend. No cruising for me. I would LOVE to do a Niagara cruise. Just got back from Wednesday. Was there with my g/f celebrating Canada Day and our 3.5 yr mark. Saw the Greg Frewin magic/illusion show. Absolutely worth it!

Just back from Thundering Waters in Niagara Falls, OPP very active in both directions, have the crusiers lined up to chase speeders as they are radared. Passed them at a respectable 115 KPH with no issues. They're looking for the +120'ers I think. On Canada Day, I had the first tee off time at Whirlpool in Niagara Falls and at 5:15AM there were seven crusiers lined up at Casablanca in the Niagara bound lanes waiting to chase.
