2010 Penticton Peach City Beach Cruise
June 24 - 27, 2010
We have 7 SSRs from Arizona and California coming in 2008, but with the dates for the Texas run in 2009 overlapping the Beach Cruise, we are planning to scale back the 2009 SSRs at the Beach Cruise to be a smaller northwest regional event for those unable to make it to Texas for THE BIG ONE..
I believe the discussion in the past year has been to hold a national rally every two years.
Is it fair to assume that 2010 will be an off year?
If so, the 2010 Penticton Peach City Beach Cruise could be a very strong and well attended western regional event. I have no illusions that we would see any Florida or Georgia Fanatics make it all the way to the west coast, but crazier things have happened.
After all, if Fuji could make it all the way from San Diego to Maggie Valley, Copacetic Chris, Marc NY and Hot Rod Girld could lead convoys this far.
It's a beautiful area to visit, and hopefully the reports after the 2008 event will bear that out. We're blessed with beautiful clean lakes, orchards, vineyards, wineries and mountains.
I have had a few PMs recently from Fanatics thinking of coming to Penticton next year, but I don't want to have the event compete with the Texas rally, so would rather aim for 2010.
Any thoughts?
Please post a note on this thread if you would be interested in coming so we can get an early start on accomodations.

My SSR: U.V. with "flame" rally stripes, loaded incl. spare tire, CORSA Sport, MPD boards, Wester's tune
And how about you and Iris? Will you be heading up the B.C. contingent to Texas next year? It's in my dreams that we could make it. But I figure we'd need two + weeks. In that case, I would have to drive solo while Wayne stays home and works, then he would fly in for the party. Afterwards he'd have to fly home to catch up on work and I would return in the SSR. I would only do this if I were traveling with other SSR's. Oh yeah, I haven't told Wayne my idea yet lot's of time for that
Wildcat - that would be great if you could make it up here

I'd love to, but I made a commitment to handle registrations for the Beach Cruise, and it's the same weekend as Texas.

That information is on a need to know basis, and Wayne doesn't need to know at this stage, any more than Iris needs to know about the mods on the two tone.

Yes, it would - one great step in the right direction for 2010.

Glad to see you are doing this Ray. Since we had to cancel Penticton this year I was really looking forward to 2009...then came along Texas . Now we should be able to make both

I think I'll start a list now - nothing like getting a head start on planning. You'll still have the opportunity to cancel over the next 25 1/2 months.
I think we will get a pretty good turnout - lots of time to arrange days off.
