Official 2008 Beyond.ca Spring Cruise (June 1, 2008 Sunday)

[RotaryPower]

i used not even a quarter tank in my colorado

[A790]

Used just over a quarter tank, going a bit faster than I should of at times. Generally did around 125-135, passed some fantastic loooking cars. I think I got over 150 pictures, a few of which are pretty damn good. I'll upload them when I get home.

It was excellent to put some faces to usernames, I can't wait for the next one.

Next time will be better! and COP is a shit place to try and get out of all together , we need a new location.

What was wrong with the south a few years back where we went to elbow falls(? i think) ... getting out of that area onto 22x is no lights.

I ended up only using a quarter tank. Had to do some driving in Calgary after i got back too! i think nobody knew where they were going because i think the map shows us going right into town for the first stop. Oh well, that was a lot of cars to control.

BTW: The Elk & Oreman has a really good chicken wrap!

So when is the next cruise that is "Volvo friendly" (Don't think i could join the Honda Cruise) lol

LOL by the time I had gotten home (around 11:30 pm), and after a fair bit of driving in/around banff and then again in Calgary, I had just FINALLY used 3/4 tank. My GPS shows 491km for the trip. The drive up was only a quarter tank

Yea dude, it was definitely nice to meet you guys. I still can't believe how tight and clean your MR2 is- I'm mad jealous. Anyway, I won't be able to upload my pics for a few hours, but I did get some decent ones, including a cool drive by of that Blue STI.

hehe... i used 1/2 a tank total... driving from the deep south of the city to COP and then to banff... and around and back.

i love driving a honda

From the avg speeds people are listing it doesn't sound like much of a cruise but more like a canon ball run.

Like I said, I have no clue what people in the front were speeding for, but we were dead last and were driving reasonable speeds, and was a fun cruise.

[xrayvsn]

I had the pleasure of cruising with the 2 BMW M3's, the E39 540i, black Supra and red FD RX7 until the park gate. Speeds were reasonable the whole way there, everyone in our caravan were courteous with each other and the other cars on the road.

Absolutely zero douchebaggery occured, and I was surrounded by BMW's!

[Honda_002]

I was lucky enough to cruise with some beamers the supra and the elise. We kept it reasonable but i couldnt hesitate chasing the supra

anyone know the full story about the cops at the gate when we were all parked on the side of the road coming into banff? i drove by and all i could hear was the one rcmp yelling "...AND I WILL TOW EVERY ONE OF YOU"

Yeah, that's when I was talking to him, he was going off the handle. He was pissed about some guys (white Del Sol) flying at 200+, he'd gotten a bunch of complaints. I had a chat with him and got him calmed down and we went on our merry way.
