Visiting Calgary

[bsudiro]

Hi, Calgary NSX-ers ...
I've got a business meeting / training in Calgary next week (week of 6/18) .. Just wondering if you happen to have a meet during that week .. It'll be nice to see some NSX-s during the trip .. makes me miss my car a bit less .. ..

Also .. I'm spending the weekend there and flying back on sunday afternoon. Any suggestion for a decent drive through Banff and the area that's not excessively far for a whole day's drive ??

Thanks in advance ..

Cheers .. Gus

Hello Gus,
Are you getting a rental car? I'm out this weekend and next or I'd take you up for a ride. Lots of nice drives up there. Which day are you thinking of heading up?

If you take highway 1 up to Banff and take 1a into Lake Louise is a nice drive. You can drive up to Lake Louise from Calgary in about 2 hours depending on traffic and time of day. The 1a diversion is a nice side road to the main highway. If you have more time carry on highway 1 down to Field after Lake Louise.

Highway 40 off highway 1 into Kananaskis opens up all the way this weekend. The drive up to highwood pass is one of my favorites. Thats about 1 1/2 hours up to the pass from Calgary.

Hi ..
Yes, I'll have a rental car. There'll be a few ppl from the company, so we're sharing cars for the week but they'll leave on saturday and I'm staying another day until Sunday (6/24).

Thanks a lot for your offer, .. maybe next time I can be there, and the timing's right, you can show me the exciting routes .. ..
I'll check out these routes and hopefully I can try it out next week ..

Looks like there are more new NSX-s there in Calgary .. hopefully I can see some during my time there ..

Cheers .. Gus
