I've noticed at least 5-6 people on here from Winnipeg. Any interest in a meet up next month? Preferably towards the end of August? There are quite a few new craft breweries open that might be cool to try.

Youngest's grad - we're helping set up the hall and scheisse that evening. Guess that means I'd be on the out list.

That sucks. Next time!

So, I think I'm 90% on showing up. I don't drink no more, but I'll come and hang out, and have a fancy soda water or some such silliness.

I'm a definite 100% on showing up that day! But only if Tauri brings the RS and gives us a ride in it.

Hey, I forgot to mention, I think BritWRX is also a Manitoba boy. I think he may live in the Brandon area (I'm not sure, though), but you should extend the invitation to him, just in case.

You WPG guys should try to hunt down Northern Ridge and Dexer for your little GTG.

Good call on BritWRX. Didn't know they were in MB.

Also, I don't know who Dexer is, but if you are reading this, COME ON OUT!

I've often wondered about Northernridge because I remember he used to drive or still drives an MB E-class and there is one always parked around the corner from my house. Does anyone on here still keep in touch with him?

Edit: Sent Brit and Dexer a note. Mr. Ridge must have deleted his account as I cannot send him a message.

I wonder if Dex passed away. Didn't he have cancer? I suppose if you could find his You Tube account (?) see if he's posted any more mouth organ videos...

Always thought it was too bad NR left...too.

RIP old timers...wherever you are.

Northernridge's account. Hasn't been on since 2015.

I think JohnGenX ran into him on another forum. Not sure if they kept in touch.

Thanks for thinking of me guys. It's my daughter's birthday that weekend, so I think that I'm probably going to be a bit busy sorting stuff out for that. Too bad, "The Grove" looks like my kind of place! I may be moving to Winnipeg in the not too distant future, so hopefully next time...

Nope. I was looking for one here in Winnipeg, and never found one with the 5.0 V8. Just finalized details on a new Honda CR-V Touring. Pick it up at the end of the month.
