Default East of Toronto members?

Hi everyone, new member with a 2015 F Type S.

Any members from the Durham region that may want to get together for a coffee and ride??

Any local clubs?

Thanks, John

I'm east of Toronto, possibly a bit too far!

We've got a regional coordinator right on your door step with an S-type R that usually organizes a few road tours. Send GT42R a PM to see what's coming up.

I'm west end (Mississauga). Saw video of a Milton run last year that looked like fun. Hoping for a repeat of that.

Yes, it is - I had my eye on it for a while. Be good to meet up at the Lindsay meet. We live in Port Perry and the Oakville meet is a good excuse to do something!

I do almost all my own maintenance and keep a number of new parts on the shelf, some of which will fit your car. Let me know if you need anything.

Awesome, will do. I already know that i have the dreaded bluetooth module issue, so a replacement/upgrade will be on the shopping list.

I'm up for a run anytime. We're all pretty close so as soon as this rain stops let's do it. I'd be interested in learning more about the Lindsay and Port meet up.

Excited to pick my XK up tomorrow, and give it a thorough once over. Any details on those meets in Lindsay and Port Perry & Oakville? I searched but came up blank.

OK as follows:
1 Brits in the Park ----Lindsay, Sunday 16 July 2017--- we usually drive up for 9-00am.

2 Brits by the Lake----Port Perry, Sunday 13 August 2017--- same timing.

3 British Car Day--- Bronte Provincial Park, 17 September 2017---same timing.

Note that first 2 events are Victoria British Car Club and the third organised by Toronto Triumph Club.

Also there is a run out of Lindsay this Sunday,28 May 2017 up to Bobcageon but I have no details.

Currently in Bobcageon on my boat and am up here most weekends. I can certainly make the Port Perry and Lindsay meets on my way home. The weather is looking sketchy up here this weekend so may head back early Sunday and looking to go for a ride if anyone wants to meet up.

Don't suppose you had your F Type in Port Perry today? I spotted a White F Type.

Funny you ask as a coworker asked the same as he must have seen the same one. No it wasn't me.
Maybe Sunday if it doesn't rain.

For anyone interested the "Little British Cars and Friends" run starts at 10-30 am at the Horseless Carriage Auto Museum between Fenelon Falls and Bobcageon on the north side of County Road 8,with a visit to the museum. Then convoy to Snug Harbour Estates via Bobcageon where you eat the picnic lunch you brought with you!
