Met CarsofFortLangley yesterday. I forgot to bring my actual camera, so here’s pretty okay phone pictures of our cars.

It was good to meet up! Hopefully we can do it again sometime soon.

I’ll try and bring one of my less boring cars!

For sure, I can try and do the same. No volvo for a while, but I can bring the Raider out next time

Oppomeets are always fun. I think the largest showing we ever had was... ten or so in Toronto?

But now there are none where I live.

If we did a BC, AB, and SK meet, we might get close to 10

I always thought Alberta and the Lower Mainland had a good amount.

I think there are a few in Alberta, but there are only like 3 of us in the lower mainland. Then vicali in kamloops I think, and we used to have g-body man in kelowna.

That really makes me want to get a legacy wagon. Fantastic shot and great cars!

I know Luc, For Canada, gogmorgo, and thebigbossyboss are in Alberta. There’s one other Oppo in Saskatchewan, and I think there are none in Manitoba. So yeah, we might be able to have ten of us meet up!

Waterton Park, next June? I would go. You would also be forced to meet my kids and spouse.

I am like 1 hr from the border crossing at Roosville/Eureka MT.

That could be pretty sweet to do sometime

Ten hour drive. Which also means you’re one of the closer Opponauts to me.

Hell, living in Ontario, Pete was a fifteen hour drive from most of the other Ontario Opponauts.

A meetup in Edmonton or Calgary would probably make the most sense.

Or we all crash Gog’s place in the mountains.

I think I can get to Calgary in about 4-5 hrs from here too. I don’t know if I’d bother though.

Good lord that looks gorgeous. I’ve never been quite that far south in Alberta, that would be awesome. I doubt I’d be able to get time off in June though, I imagine finding the right time to do it would be the hardest part of planning a meet

I mean, coordinating a meet would be a real pain in the arse (and I’d be up for doing one when I’m not driving my girlfriend’s car and have one of my own), so it’s a ways off if it ever happens.

Calgary’s not bad, only 10 hours according to google, but in reality it’s like 12 or so. Jasper’s even closer, and the area is beautiful

I’d be down for that, it’s a great park

East coast OPPOs don’t know how good they have it. There is distance to cover out here in the wild west.

Western Canada Oppos unite! We can all go for coffee in Revelstoke.. and a rip through the koots..

I’d cast my vote for Calgary. Prettier drive from BC.
