Fingers crossed for good weather this Sunday as we have our Toronto Lotus Fall Run planned and yes I will take my camera. I think we might be a few cars light as some consider the start distance too far from home and are organizing a city "west" run.
The weather man says an early morning low of 0c or 32f and a high of 12c or 55f but no rain thus far. However my roof will stay down and I will don my leather aviators helmet, goggles and scarf. It's a sight to behold:thumbdown:

Sounds fun! Canada is a bit too far for me though... However, our last cruise in of the year is Saturday, so I will be off enjoying the car scene as well! Looking forward to your photos.

Crossing the fingers worked as the weather guy says a high of 14c or 57 f and sunny all day. The current temp however is 1 c or 33 f so it's heavy sweater, leather jacket, leather aviators helmet and goggles because the roof never goes up on the Seven.
Must remember to pop the bonnet and turn that heater on:thumbup:
Full report and pics later.

What a day, weather great, company great and no break downs.
15 cars turned out and about 20 bodies. The route was just beautiful, fall colours, the lake and finishing at a fantastic restaurant. The drive was exciting as you would expect when 15 Lotus try convoying. My GPS has a problem as it registered a top speed of 167 Kilometres per hour, obviously wrong as the speed limit here in Ontario is 100 KPH:huh:
Here are a few pics, not up to Kylie's photog standards but they give you a flavour.
