Come join me to check out the twisty back roads of the Muskoka before the big drive scheduled sometime in August or September TBD.
We will be using last years map and add a few more roads.
Although its a pre-drive it is still a cruise and it will be fun to explore the excellent scenery, twisty windy back roads and roller coaster hills Muskoka has to offer.

Yep...We held Est Fest in Muskoka this year, the roads are simply amazing in this part of the Province

 

[Saturns]

I would suggest to people who come out to the drives to pick up a Walkie Talkie GMRS unit.
They are relatively cheap and helps in the communication to steer people in the right way.
They start at $40 for a pair.

Long term weather forecast looks promising.

Fantastic driving weather summer skies.

Pictures at the pier will look amazing!

 

[Saturns]

Thank you all that came out. We had way too much of a good time. Next time we will need to tone it down "just as bit" to make it a smooth cruise from beginning to end.

Pictures and video to follow.

Jealous of the twisty roads.

The one thing I missed about living in Angus ON.

Can you post the route?

No route is posted online. You gotta show to get the route.

 

[Saturns]

Pics posted by other drivers. I'll process my pics tonight.

All the NSX-ers were hiding in the shade.

My immediate thoughts:
-Purple 993...oh mama.
-red Exige...yes please!
-clear tails on Vantage looks like a ricer got to it first
-I'm getting tired of seeing white R35's.
-Rear valence on silver NSX (and I know he's here and I say this respectfully) looks homemade.

Sorry I missed out. If this was the pre-drive, when is the actual cruise happening? Any dates so we can plan ahead.

The silver is Mario's. Lots of body mods with lambo scissor doors. I prefer 02+ valance myself. Love that purple 993 also. There seem to be a few of those around in Markham/Richmond Hill area. Actually like the R35 in white. Such a unattractive car but a giant killer nevertheless.

Anyone took picture of the cruise roads?
