Title: Map for Tall Pines?
Post by Daniel_Buehler on 11/17/8 at 09:32:18

Hello,

Two questions:

First, I'm looking for a map (or a few) of the Bancroft area. I'd like to to find one that has as many of the roads we will be using as possible. Does anyone know where I can download an appropriate map?
Second, I can't find the latitude and longitude boundaries for the rally (I'm sure I saw some last year). If they are listed, can anyone tell me where they are?

Thank you for your time.

Daniel

I believe there are some rules in the GCR's about not releasing route details. One of the reasons why you don't see routes/maps online before the event.

Longitude and Latitude are traditionally in the supps, I don't remember if I saw this or not.

Jamie is right.

Some basic boundaries - guaranteed not to go beyond these:

North - Birds Creek
East - McArthur Mills
South - Bannockburn
West - Coe Hill

There is an excellent Hastings County map available online. I will get Nornan H. to provide the details if no one else can find it.

That'd be this one (though it isn't loading for me at the moment) :

Hi all,

And, thanks.

Jamie - did you see them in the Tall Pines Supps? Because I should probably let Nuwan know if I'm loosing my ability to read... :D

Ross - thanks so much, those were what I was looking for.

Ryan - I also can't get the link to work. And I'm in Alberta with no access to a car, so online is the only source for me... :(

(Thanks Bruce)

PS Dan, good to see your car at ORF, any idea when you might be there again?

Thank Ryan (and Bruce),

That link is perfect!

I'll be moving a couple more small things up to ORF in the week after Pines. I hope to be working (playing?) there at least once a week after that.

Your car looks GOOOOOOOD... :o

Nice! I'm trying to spend one day a week there. Things are progressing, I might be ready to make my first bend the weekend after Pines. Here's hoping anyway! ;)
