Montreal Meet and Eat!

Whats up everyone! Ok well I'm wondering how many people would want to set up a get together in or around Montreal? maybe in Laval?? I could possibly have a venue but we can figure that out depending on how many people want to come. I was thinking we could meet up, hang out for a while, then after that cruise somewhere and grab some food.
If you interested please let me know!
I think there should be a pronounced Mini Club of Montreal.
who's interested?






Who's In=

1. Malcon
2. Ed (fun2drive)
3. MC 2
4.Mox
5. NiKTaMeR
6.MC2's friend
7.???

Wished I could be there. It's been a few years since I've been to Montreal.

For sure I would also be interested, but a bit harder for me to get organized since i'm in the military. So i'll wait and see what date comes up, and try real hard to be there. I'm a good 4-5 hours from MTL, but that doesn't bother me much.

I should take delivery of my Mini in 2-3 weeks max also at Brossard Mini.

What about something like "Mini club du Québec", since there is people a bit from everywhere in QC. I'd be willing to start a kinda website also, with our own forum, www.Miniclubquebec.ca

In my case, I wont drive down to MTL before I pick up my car in 2 or 3 weeks, but i'll try my best to make the other meet and eat afterward.

so you think about 3 weeks before you can get it?....we can always have another. I would like there to be a regular meeting/ hangout place and time eventually so that could be cool

Great idea!!

Yup, Brossard Mini told me that my car is somewhere in the Atlantic on the ship. So I think 2-3 weeks sounds reasonable before I pick it up.

Comptez sur moi ! :-)

PS: J'vais trainer ma camera

PS2: Pour un forum/website, je fais du hosting et j'ai deja l'habitude avec des gros forums (http://www.QuebecPhotos.ca que j'ai starté en 2004) je peux surement donner un coup de main.

Malcon: Sure I'm in!

I was saying that I will bring my camera to the meet so we have some stuff to show To give you an idea I made many photos that were published in car magazines

Also, about the idea of starting a Club Mini Montreal or something like that .. I have a good experience with large forums and I'm doing web hosting (www.QuebecPhotos.ca is my baby, I started it in 2004)

NiKTaMeR said he is looking for a pair of S-Lite wheels because his wheels are bent and he needs to put air in the tires really often... but he's in ;-)

Mox, thanks! that sounds really cool
a Local Forum would be very cool. I can make t-shirts and If we have enough people... I think the min. order is like 20, we can order really nice metal badges for out cars.

but yeah very cool! pictures are needed!
You and my girlfriend will get along great! she is a photographer. her website is www.Keelytatephotography.com

anyway

Does anybody have any suggestions on where we could meet up? maybe laval somewhere? i figure there would be larger areas to hang out rather than in the city... but im pretty new here in the city so i dont know where anything is...

thanks!

Malcon, let her know that I really like her work, she's a real artist!

For a place in Laval, maybe we can meet in the parking of the Colossus cinema. The problem is that the parking is BIG.. There is a spot that is not really used in that parking, really close to the cosmodome, on the border of the 15. It's easy to spot, there is a big rocket on the corner (in the cosmodome parking) - See: http://www2.tripoli-quebec.org:8081/...ure/cosmo3.jpg

Maybe then we can go take some pictures.. There is a multi-level parking at the Carrefour Laval (2 minutes from the Colossus parking) that is really interesting for an "underground" style.

To eat there is many places around on St-Martin!

I'll get some people with MINIs on Monchar.com and MontrealRacing.com once the date/time/place is fixed

It will be a good occasion to discuss about a "Club Mini Montreal", what do you think?
