So, just in case there's anyone who didn't get the memo yet or wants to join last minute, here's the meet-up details.
Saturday, quick meet and greet at 10:15am in the parking lot at the Chevron (f.k.a. Fas Gas, a.f.k.a. Tempo) 8432 TransCanada Hwy 1 at Mt. Sicker Rd.
We'll be heading out right after 10:30am unless there are road delays on the way up from Victoria. Stacey & I are leaving Langford at 9am which should get us there by 10:00.

Old Mt Sicker Rd Trail is the plan Lance.
Haven't been through since I took my current profile photo though, back in October I believe. By the way, that's the rock shelf that drops you on to the mines side of the hill where most of the fun stuff is. There is always a remote chance a big tree came down over the trail or it got washed out but if the trail was effed up I probably would have heard some mention about it through the grapevine. Even if it is, that just means we have to go back and take the long way around. There is one other way to get in from the Mt Sicker Rd side but i don't think it's going to be an option for some of the vehicles we're likely to have there. Off-roading is about adventure after all, what kind of adventure would it be if you knew exactly what to expect on your journey eh? ;-)
** UPDATE: Sunday run is now FULL **
Enough people are already committed for Sunday now, as we have 5 for sure going and a maybe 6th.
Saturday has a couple more spots open for any new people or anyone not familiar with the area.
I think we have 3 for sure going on that day and another maybe. 5 is ideal, 6 is manageable.
No fun going up Plantation, might as well go in the Civic if you're gonna do that.
Hopefully the puddles aren't too deep.

Sorry you can't make it Grandirty.
There's still plenty of 2018 left though, we'll see you on another run some time. :)
