About Registration
For those that have registered, thank you very much. For those that have not, I can’t emphasize enough the importance of registering as soon as possible if you intend to participate in this event. Why? With only just over 150 days until we kick off, we need to plan for tour consumables, create an itinerary based upon participation levels AND hotels will only continue to hold group block space if reservations are active. These blocks are only available to registered tour participants.
If you haven’t registered yet but are planning to in the very near future, please let us know so that we can track numbers and plan for supplies, venues/events, etc.. Once again, this is extremely important to the organization of the event – critical in fact.
About The Lethbridge Stop
If you’ve looked at the itinerary, you’ll know that we are planning on gathering in Lethbridge Alberta to start our trek. Coincidentally, that weekend is the Streetwheelers “Street Machine” weekend. You can check out their weekend activities HERE. Note that, if can arrive in town on Friday, July 9, they have their parade-style cruise on 3rd. Ave. We also look forward to hooking up with The Le Barons Car Club of Lethbridge while in Lethbridge.
Amongst other things, we will likely have a group dinner on Saturday July 10 and are planning for a rod run to Waterton Lakes National Park on Sunday July 11.
Other Tour Stops
Another update will follow with information about our stops in Calgary, Kamloops and Langley and Victoria.
About Friday July 16 on Vancouver Island

When you are in Calgary…if time permits a day trip to Drumheller AB may be in order. Take a look at the scenic valley – it is breathtaking. We would love to put an event together to showcase your cars here in Drumheller. Let me know your thoughts.
The drive up to Courtenay via the OLd Island Hwy is a real nice leisurly one. a lot of it is thru small towns along the coast of the Island. Lots of great place to stop for photos, eating , etc. Also the ComoX Glacier, pretty cool to see!!
Today, with all the fast way of living that everyone is having, credit cards have a huge demand throughout the market. Persons throughout every area of life are using the credit card and people who are not using the credit card have prepared to apply for just one. Thanks for giving your ideas on credit cards./wp-login.php?action=registerThese days of austerity as well as relative panic about getting debt, many people balk up against the idea of employing a credit card in order to make purchase of merchandise or perhaps pay for a vacation, preferring, instead just to rely on the actual tried along with trusted technique of making repayment – cash. However, in case you have the cash on hand to make the purchase fully, then, paradoxically, that’s the best time for them to use the credit card for several factors./wp-login.php?action=registerOne thing is always that one of the most widespread incentives for applying your credit card is a cash-back and also rebate offer. Generally, you’ll get 1-5% back with various purchases. Depending on the credit cards, you may get 1% back on most purchases, and 5% in return on acquisitions made on convenience stores, gasoline stations, grocery stores and also ‘member merchants’. /wp-login.php?action=registerThanks for these pointers. One thing I also believe is the fact credit cards offering a 0% monthly interest often attract consumers in zero interest rate, instant acceptance and easy online balance transfers, but beware of the number one factor that will certainly void your own 0% easy street annual percentage rate as well as throw anybody out into the bad house quickly./wp-login.php?action=registerThanks for your tips. One thing I have noticed is that banks along with financial institutions know the dimensions and spending behavior of consumers and as well understand that a lot of people max outside their own credit cards around the trips. They properly take advantage of this real fact and commence flooding your inbox along with snail-mail box having hundreds of no-interest APR credit cards offers shortly when the holiday season finishes. Knowing that should you be like 98% of the American public, you’ll rush at the one opportunity to consolidate financial debt and switch balances towards 0 APR credit cards.
