Manitoulin Cruise.
Planning a little cruise.
Aug 3rd to 7th.
Basically around 1500km drive.
Driving along Georgian Bay (Nottawasaga bay etc) and staying at Bruce Peninsula National park.
Taking the MS Chi-Cheemaun ferry to the Manitoulin Island and drive around the whole island.
After which stop off in sudbury and drive the thirty islands lake front through parry sound and hitting up the wassaga beach area etc.
So far there is my brothers (on bikes) and a couple of friends.
And on the rotary side only around 3 cars. (Still pending.)
Any interest.

This will be more of an actual cruise, rather than a "race". Of course there will be fun bits, but I want to see the area, not speed through it trying to keep the car on the road.
The date is confirmed.

thats to bad.
So who is going. Going to make plans this weekend. Book camping site etc. So far I will only book spots for a few people and am wondering if I should book for others since alot of times people do not show up. Don't want to be stuck with paying for camping/rooms if nobody goes!
