Yes, the 24th annual GCVWS is happening from Friday the 21st to Sunday the 23rd. I am on the fence as to whether I am going or not because the budget was stretched a little thin going to Seattle, but is anyone else here going to any of the events? I know Frank Mitch and Twig are potentially cooking up something with hot motors for the drags, but the rumour mill didn't say if their plans include the show and shine on the 23rd or not. Anyone else planning on attending just the 23rd's show and shine? Perhaps we could take one or two cars with a few more people to share the costs? Just a thought… Here is a link to the full goings-on: www.airspeedparts.com/forums/index.php?topic=24685.0

I'll be at the main show on 23rd, although I am not sure if I am taking a car or going over as a foot passenger and catching the bus / Skytrain. Either way, I'm planning on being there. Hopefully others will join me!

Kinda Mitch. I dunno about calling it a time vampire though, more like it visits me in my dreams(nightmares?) and will probably haunt me to my dying day or is that …….

I am not sure about going at this time. Spent a lot of my "fun" money this year already on the Seattle trip...

I'm not sure if your rumour mill machine has fresh batteries Don.

So who all from the mid islands heading over this coming weekend? I'm going over to catch pretty much all the events! It's always a great show! The new vvwc valve cover track will be over there!

I'll be there on the Sunday only. Not sure whether I'm taking a car or not. I think that the ferries will be fairly busy heading back on Sunday evening.

I'd love to go, but can't seem to get it together. Probably too much tripping around the province already this year. Who ever goes, take lots of pics and post em up.

I'm not sure if your rumour mill machine has fresh batteries Don. Guess so…..or an engine that remains together for more than a few hours…. I've made the decision not to go. Well it was kind of made for me….With my significant other away there are just too many things(animal and vegetable) to look after. On the plus side, I get to make a giant mess reorganizing without fear of imposition.

Is anyone going from Nanaimo, or am I going to be "Billy No Mates" on the ferry?

Definately can't make it. Taking care of my Mother for the next week or so. Hope to sneak out for coffee Tuesday?

I'm working Tuesdays for the next three meetings. I hate it when work gets in the way of life.
