LET'S GET TOGETHER :)

we'll be there on the 3rd.
I remember, somebody organised a bugmeet once. Two hours drive to see another two. :D
Tesla
05-26-2008, 04:06 PM
Yeah, it's time for Toronto bugs to have it's own GTG. Nothing special, no fancy orchestra playing or beauty contest, no first place winers, no free gifts. Just chillin' over a coffee and showing off.
I am glad to see you back Levy! Can't wait to see your bug.

I've been to two GTG's in Toronto. !st one had exactly two people show up, me and the guy who drove from Windsor. 2nd had four of us.
Time we all start tagging cars to get them more involved!
Tesla
05-27-2008, 05:02 PM
Let's do that. We need a nice tag design :) Post your ideas here :) Hope to see ya all there when the time comes :)
Tesla
05-29-2008, 01:48 PM
niceeeee! :) Luv the one with red letters and two leafs :) May be BUG should be more clear, ... G looks like 4 and U looks like V.
LadybugEwa
05-29-2008, 05:54 PM
I like the sign, maybe some different fonts for the slogan?
So I checked, and ofcourse I'm working June 3rd, and a night shift too, so not like I can make it 'after work' :rolleyes: Sucks! :mad:
Oh, it's a U, I thought it was an N and well, my mind started going to dirty places.

Let's get some more designs over the weekend people ( I'll do something too :) and we can print them and start spreading the word. I like your design MIG. I think that there should be a blank area where we can write down place and time of the GTG, or some other msg. and of course.... don't forget to promote newbeetle.org :)
Just to make sure this tag thing is effective, I would like to propose an idea :) For the first official 2008 Toronto New Beetle GTG we will go without tags, just us here, but... bring your ideas printed on June 3rd GTG so we can discuss them, and then, we will have another 30 days to infect the city with tags and the effects will be visible ( I hope ) on the next GTG. If not... well...at least we can say we did gave it a shoot.
Am I over excited? ...:p
How many BUGGERS livin' in Toronto on this site anyways?

Anybody else have any suggestions or will this be the logo? btw, after one is decided I can reproduce it in high res.

May be two times newbeetle.org is two much:p .I would leave the big logo on the bottom ( a bit smaller though ) and remove the one from fender. Again, leave some room for date and place so we can write it down when we need it. Can you set it up the way so that 8 tags fit on A4 size of paper for printing? I don't think we need high res, unless there is a big banner on your mind :)
Great job MiG, I'll buy you a coffee when I see you next time ;)

Hang in there, Levy :grouphug:
Last weekend I wanted to smash the computer that I was trying to install the Bentley manual on, but then in the wee hours of last night, everything worked all of sudden, and now it's up and running :clap: I sure am happy the computer's unsmashed ;) :o
I got time after work tomorrow, just in case you guys need some moral support :curtsey:
I'm also a good tool gopher, and have small hands (that comes in pretty useful, working on a NB) :D

06-17-2008, 11:23 PM
hi guys, Ewa,
I am working crazy hours, no time for computer.
I do not have the parts, neither the confidence to go to the VW stealer again.
I do thank you all for your offer to help me though...
Also, it feels like my MAF is acting up. My rear speaker is fried.
It seems that I have to spend a lots of money on a car I barely use.
If, Tesla, or anyone else is around, I might be able to hook up on Saturday, or Sunday.
LMK
Tesla
06-17-2008, 11:38 PM
Saturday is fine. Hope the weather will work for us. May be I can help with the MAF. Mine used to act weird and I sprayed it with some electronic cleaner long time ago. Work'd like a charm. I think I still have some left, enough for 2 - 3 cleanings :rolleyes: .
LadybugEwa
06-17-2008, 11:47 PM
Hope you guys figure this out and make Levy happier with his bug.
I'll be working through the weekend, so I'll have to wait until the GTG on the 3rd to meet you. Can't wait to meet such a helpful bunch :)

Saturday during the day I will be checking few things on my bug on a parking lot behind building where I live. At 5PM I'll have to leave for some BBQ thing, some boring stuff :D
If anyone is interested in spending some time and sharing experience... you are welcome :)
Levy, you still want to clean your MAF and check cup holders?.... car wash may be?
MiG, is that P-flow in yet?
Tesla
06-20-2008, 04:26 AM
So the deal is 11AM Saturday. If anyone else is interested, send mi a private massage for more details. I have Levy and me confirmed, and may be MiG will join us with his (music creshendo) new P-Flow :thewave: ... that we just installed an hour ago :), and we fixed my throttle lag that happened to me this afternoon. It was K&N filter dirty up to the elbows. Now it's all cleaned and oiled and "professionally" installed.

hahahaha... my name ... hsssssssss....is.....hsssssssss....BUG-VADER hs hs hs hs hs hssssssss..
I love the way it's swooshing, lil bit too much for my taste but it sounds like turbo now. What I noticed is that you have smoother acceleration through out the band and RPM-s are droping down faster ( while swooshing loudly ). Well, BUG-VADER has been MODED now and I am glad I took a part in that. Thanks MiG for leting me help you, it was my pleasure. Luv Bugs new name!
Now.. bring on some pics :)

Thanks MiG. As for mine photos.... well... you can't have it all, camera and memory card, can't you? So I brought the camera and after 50 sweet shoots I figured out there is no card in camera!
BUMER!
Thank you folks for showing up!! Each Bug showed last night was awesome, including mine :D
I was so happy to meet ERICWC. The old, New Beetle. '98 with over 300000 kliks on it !!! Get out of town!! Man, that car is a mule!! It's nice to know our Bugs can go that far and still look better then any other car. ERICWC need a cleaning ( he he he ) and lubrication but it's a Bug to be proud of!
MiG showed up with his BugVader. Spotless and shinny with a big smile :D :thewave:
:goodjob: :goodjob: for bugVader!
And then Lady Bug Ewa came. Oh man! First time for me to get close up view of a red NB and my jaw went :jawdrop:
Remus sounds much better in person then on You Tube, and it's BIG! And those red rims with lips ... fiii... :firedevil HOT HOT HOT!
Thanks again everybody! Looking forward for next GTG when we will go for a photo shooting session, some BBQ and drive in movie.
:wave:
ERICWC
07-04-2008, 09:08 PM
Yeah - thanks Tesla!
I will be cleaning ERICWC before next GTG.
LadyBugEWA's rims are to die for for sure, and congrats for keeping an almost as old as ERICWC in such great shape!
Tesla - I am loving your interior Black & Yellow mod for sure.
MIG - I did not get to see your LED lights inside - maybe next time... Bug Vader looks very cool - I like the color...
Hey other GTA bug peeps - come on out and join us next time!! :)

Hi Torontonians and folks from beautiful Ontario Canada :D
It's that time of the month when we decide where and when we will meet up again for coffe, Beetle show off and chat, but this time we plan to raise this event to a bit higher level . We will include a road trip to some exotic or not so exotic but interesting place for some photo shooting, possible BBQ and a drive in movie :dance2: . I guess it should be weekend and, yes, bring your familly and friends, pets and cameras ( memory cards too :) ).
Here are the weekends, let's pick one day and have fun :thewave:
August 2008
Saturday 2nd, Sunday 3rd
Saturday 9th, Sunday 10th
Saturday 16th, Sunday 17th
Saturday 23rd, Sunday 24th
Suggest some places we could go to on a road trip and/or the restaurant with nice food.
Hope to see manu Beetles and orgers there.
Thanks everybody!!

I had so much fun last time, thanks you guys :flowers:
Your buggies were awesome, and they're on my work computer's desktop getting many admiring glances :eyecrazy:
Today I finally wrote my exam - *relieved sigh* so I'm looking forward to this event already :)
I think the only drive-in movie theatre left open is the Oakville one, the '5'.
Someone told me the Docks one has closed :( I'll make the drive to Oakville happily :)

If you can't fit your Bug in the plane for the GTG we will forgive you this time :D
Other Bugers? Are you coming? We need to confirm the date with all of you soon so we can start tagging other bugs around GTA.
So that would be 9th of August, 3-ish PM and then a road trip with photo shooting, lunch/dinner and a drive in movie :)
It's like a small vacation :)

So, is "the boss" coming too?
How about some road trip suggestions? I know there is a nice road between 400 and highway 50 and it goes through farms and up and down the hills :) Maybe a picnic near some lake. Balsam lake (http://www.ontarioparks.com/ENGLISH/bals.html) is nice, Bellwood too :) if it's not to far away for you guys to drive ( with gas prices and all that ). Innisfil (http://maps.google.ca/maps?hl=en&q=Innisfil&ie=UTF8&ll=44.330725,-79.548912&spn=0.169208,0.294571&z=12&iwloc=addr) beach?
Bring it on folks. Let's have fun since it's Saturday and most likely very nice day.
Cheers

Yup boss is coming. Anywhere around GTA is great. Lots of nice roads up here in York Region. We have a drive in here too, but I am ok with Oakville #5 too.
If we are going to #5 Drive-in we could got to Bronte Creek Provincial Park (http://www.ontarioparks.com/English/bron.html)

How about taking a ride to the Forks of the Credit River?
It was a very nice road 4 years ago, when I last drove it.
Sounds interesting, how far out is it?
Tesla
07-30-2008, 03:07 PM
Well, it can't be too far. I,ll give you a ride :) I am sorry guys, but I am fairly new here in Canada and I am not familiar with "good for a ride" side roads. I'll take whatever you got as long as I get the chance to ride with Speedle. So bring it on folks, August is just around the corner. Who votes for Forks of the Credit River?

Hi Ontario Buggers. I am so glad to see so many of you showing interest in meet up :) Oh well, we all understand, september is the hardest of them all, next to december :) I am afraid I won't be able to see you guys this month unless you are willing to have a day trip with me to Kingston for a boat cruise and possible extension of the trip to Montreal with one night staying at hotel. That might happened on weekend 27/28, and next weekend (20/21) I plan on going to Muskoka for a day trip on Sunday, again some boat cruising or just hiking.
Fall is coming and colors are going to be magnifikant so I wanna ride the Speedle and enjoy in my color blindness.
Who's in?

I'm going to Dunville on the 20th for what is probably gonna be my first and last lapping day this year (I missed out on Mosport-grrr). Slicks are getting mounted this week :D
Sunday the 21st should be free as well as the following weekend. As long as there is a Sunoco or two along the route I am in.

Nice,
Well, last weekend we went to Haliburton for some ATV (http://backcountrytours.ca/atv.php)-ing and we had a blast ( nuclear one :) ). It was 330 kliks north/east and we drove side roads. If you guys are interested, we might do the same thing this Sunday ( 28th ), only somewhere closer to Toronto. I know there is Sunoco in Gravenhurst but have no idea where you can rent an ATVs and trail close to HWY 400.
PM me if interested or have other ideas to kill that Sunday.

The most direct way is straight up the 400. I work downtown, so anywhere away from the core is fine by me. Somewhere along the 401 before the 400 would be a good place. It might be a good idea to grab a bite before we start the trek so how about Katz's Deli on Dufferin St. between St. Clair and Eglinton. They have a BIG parking lot and the food is good-I can attest. It's not too far away from the 401 although traffic will be bad no matter where we meet up around that time.
Just an idea...

I worked in the Toronto Carpet Factory for over a year not so long ago so we probably bumped into each other unknowingly. I'll just meet you by the pay booth in the main parking lot across from the Warehouse Grill @ 70. Fraser Ave. and we can head from there.
How is 5:30PM?
I know the way to Barrie-been there a few times :D
I don't know anyone else that is coming.

A trip to Barrie with DownTownTurbo was awesome. A trip back was even better :) As for the Barrie... there was no one there and we ended up having a drink at Hooters and a nice Beetle related chat. I guess drivers are lost again in Barrie :)
