http://preeve.photosite.com/OntarioMeetSept4/Was a really good turn out this year, well I never saw last years but we had about 16-20 Vibes and trixs at one time though some people had to bail early while others stuck around for the meal at Alice Fazooli's or what ever its spelled before we all went to Dave and Busters for some games and drinks.Some of us headed out and home around 1am.Was really nice meeting so many of you ontario Vibers and MTL viber (Sam) who I just see online here and it was also nice to meet up again with you MI Vibers. I know Carrie was really happy to see Jeff's turbo... haha.More pics to come I am sure because many ppl took a few.

ha ha ha! see me beating the crap out of the boxing guy! wasn't as fast as Michigan, but hey! i just recovered from 2 surgeries, so i couldn't hurt myself too much you know.but great turn out. vibes outnumbered the trix's. thanks to 1337trix for leading our long caravan of vibes and trix's. wanted to jump out at the Ford Explorer that cut us off in our caravan and proceeded to SLOW down so we couldn't catch up. but hey, that's what hand gestures are for when a line of us vibes go screaming by and passing him! LOL. wish i'd video taped it all! but did get a nice pic of sam and tammy screaming by!i'll work on getting my pics up when i get back. awesome time guys! hope you all had fun like i did!

Super picS, NicS, and great meeting you! Mean't to talk a little more and let you know how great it is to have such a dedicated and steady hand at the helm of GenVibe, and especially for showing maturity beyond your years* in dealing with the occassional interpersonal issue.* (of course pretty much everybody's years look few when most members are younger than one's kids... )

Not an attendee...but I'm definitely planning to attend your Jersey meet next summer. I've got the bug now. Haha. And the 'do things to my car' bug...I was just discussing with mom today my eventual intent to put leather seats in it, and wanting to change the color of the silver interior panels. It has begun.

This was a great meet. I had a blast. Next time will have to remember that Canadian Smirnoff Triple Black is 7% and not 3.9% like the US. What a headache the next day. trdvibe/mavrik - great job setting this up!

As soon as I crossed into Michigan I had to slow down because I thought my teeth were going to rattle loose!

Come to think of it, you are right. I have not been to Quebec in about 6 years. Fun city though.

on a side note....the smirnoffs up here also actually contain vodka....you'll notice south of the border they are 'malt beverages'!(i had this long discussion/realization with a friend in the industry last year and i couldn't believe it!)

Those are all some nice pics. Wish I wasn't so absent minded to keep leaving my camera at the hotel room. We all had a great time, I just wish the vacation wasn't so short.
