Mazda in the Mountains 2006

Yeah Nick, what do you mean by 'bad'?? I was up the end of June and it was still good for driving, etc... But if you want to introduce me to more twistie roads, I won't say no Glen.


FYI - the absolute BEST twistie road is Hwy 4 from Parksville to Tofino on Vancouver Island; 3 hours of non-stop curves up, down and around cliffs, rivers and mountains. Drove this last week and it was a BLAST!!!!! (first) Too bad it's so far away.

bad because of al lthe damn cyclists. I went up again at like 9:30 one night and it was SWEET cause you could huck all the corners real fast. I even pulled the e-brake around a few. But during the day, too much traffic. Weak-sauce.

got the Hiboost mani and I m back in action....mmm emanage is nice. So mountains it is...well I guess we can reverse drift on the icy roads lol

I have soooo many awesome roads around me here in Castlegar.... if you are ever in the west kootenays I can show you some twisty roads!

as well, i've attached a couple pics from the trip; they barely hint at how beautiful the scenery is.

less than a week to go hopefully the weather will cooperate like last year

just wondering, is there going to be a pre-meet at Peter's Drive In in Calgary Friday night like there was last year? i know craig and i will be there (still arguing over which car gets to go, lol), i think one or two other guys from edmonton will be there too....

Jeff, you didn't respond to my pm - you going? if so, let me know when you're planning to head down

Whos welcome at MITM?

Hey,
I'm a new P5 owner (about a month), and want to know whos welcome out at MITM? It sounds like a great event, and although I don't know anyone, and my ride is straight stock, I'd love to come through and check out the rides.

 

[Maxx Mazda]

We'd LOVE to have you out! It's a great fun event for everyone, even if your car is still stock, you might get some ideas on what to do by checking out other people's rides.

Don't worry about these clowns. I am King Stocker and the Alberta crew knows it!

They are a great bunch of guys, of all mixes, and if you are curious about something with the car (RTM) , chances are, these guys already checked it out for ya! (ughdance)

[FunkyBuddha]

It looks like I am going to show up to help represent the 6 with SmilinVamp. See you all there.

Oh yeah, somebody better be bringing a wife or gf... mine is concerned she will be the only one.
