Topic: Chocolates and coffee Posted: 29 September 2009 at 2:38pm |
Don't forget - this Saturday, October 3rd is the day for our annual visit to Blair and Angela’s Euphoria Chocolates in Fort Langley, to be followed by a club run along River Road. (Route to be discussed.) Blair and Angela are great hosts, and Blair knows a thing or two about Fieros (to say the least). If you've got any burning questions about engine swaps etc, here's your opportunity to ask the master. This is a daytime event, so those of you who are leery of checking out new locations in the dark need not have any fear. We plan to meet at Euphoria at 1:00 PM. For anyone who hasn’t been to Euphoria Chocolates, it’s kind of a funky place (in a good sense). As we all know, women LOVE chocolate. It does something special to them, something about releasing endorphins. So guys, get lucky on Saturday and bring your "significant others". And for you guys who are single, here’s a tip for you... There’s no better place to hit on chicks than a chocolate shop. I’m not kidding, 90% of their business is women! So get a fancy coffee while you’re there, grab a stool, and try out your pickup lines that never work for you at the bar. This should be fun. Might be our last chance to enjoy our cars this year before the weather gets real ugly. Coffee and chocolates... and Fieros... great combination. Let’s do it! Euphoria Chocolates, 9103 Glover Road, Fort Langley

Firstly let me say "Thank You" to Patrick for taking the lead on this. As Pat mentioned people are {no longer!} welcome to stop by here {this time around} and gather for a mass group run to the shop in Fort Langley. If are plans are to be there for 1pm, the Vancouver guys should be here by 12:00 and be on the road by 12:30. So anyone coming from my area. (16908 104th Ave Surrey B.C. less than 2mins from HWY 1 if you drive like I do) I'd say you can start showing up here as early as 11am. Then we can hang out and do the normal chat until 12:30 when we get on the road. Reminder if you have a GMRS radio. (FRS that goes to 20) We will be on CH#20 sub 00 for the run. The run will be fun for both Spirited drivers and people that wish to take in the Scenery. With plenty of spots for the faster guys to slow down, let the cars cool and get ready to go again. Especially when we make the right turn off of River Road we will make sure to re-group. |

No problem, Dave. Between your knee and your nose, you've got your hands full. [EDIT] I just realized if my previous comment was taken literally it's kind of naughty. Did you wish to post some kind of a map of our route once we leave Euphoria? We sort of discussed a route at the club meeting, but it got a little confusing (for me anyway) without it actually being on "paper".

I think we'll try to show up for the chocolates but I'm not insuring the fiero for the day unfortunately so will be in the Element.

With luck I'll be there. Of course, with he pj's back on the Fiero for the
winter, I'll be in the ss10. It's that, or the pimp-mobile 4dr cavalier ;) |

Well, so far for our "Fiero" cruise we have an Element and an S10. Anyone else in this club besides me have a running insured Fiero??? < as Patrick frantically struggles to re-install the alternator he currently has out of his GT in a dozen pieces >

Sorry guys, (laughing as I say this but) I may have contracted something that would possibly be infectious to anyone around me, as of now my doc has me on Antivirals (Tamiflu) and I am quarantined from everyone even and especially Lisa her being pregnant and all. The doc said to be on the safe side, 72hrs from my first dose I should not go out and 5 days before I resume normal stuff. So being as the last thing I want to do is infect the entire club or even worse for the women, the entire chocolate shop, I am going to stick this one out at home. This means, no club run for me and no meeting at my house. I hear there are other people that are still planning to go, so don’t stay home just because I am not going to be around. This is a great run and being local, it’s not a great expense to take a quick cruise out to Fort Langley and enjoy time with friends in the sun and have some quality time behind the wheel of your toy. So please do go and have a blast, I’d love to see the pics and videos of the day, I am sure you will all have a blast. David Sick at home. |

That would be three Fieros. Well, keep in mind that there was nothing mentioned about having to post in this thread if anyone was interested in participating. So I guess we'll just have to see who turns up at Euphoria around 1 PM. Sunshine is still forecast for Saturday, so I'm looking forward to blowing some carbon out of the engine.
