We now have about 20 cars and 35-40 people.The two mentioned that vents are the same event. The drive electric week had the wrong time on its ads. The car rally starts at 10:00M at the Ottawa Ikea. We will have lunch and speakers in Smith Falls.

The drive starts at Ikea at 10:00 AM. Please let me know how many are coming as I need to advise the restaurant of how many will be coming. So far we have 14 Teslas and 1 Volt. We have at least 24 attending but I feel that number is low.

I use Beaverbrook Auto in Kanata to change my tires. I just drive up onto their hoist and then they raise it to level required to change tires. They have been doing this for me for over 4 years now - each spring and fall for tire changes. Price is reasonable as I have rims for both summer and...
