I know this sounds dumb, but is there ever gonna be any meets over in the US?

Maybe Pottsy could fly us all over!

I am in Chicago sometimes, but I tend to fly rather than drive the Civic over.

I don't think the Civic will stand up to floating over the Atlantic, a bit like the top gear three who drove across the channel.

It does freeze between Russia and the US far north somewhere I have heard. At least some winters... bit of a drive and not sure the Civic is the best vehicle for it.

Yep, You're right. But the meeting could be organized for our american friends.

I'm in Houston now and then ... but, I never (before) considered driving transatlantic ...

NOT that I'm "chicken" ... after all, if 'Top Gear' \ JC can get a ratty old Toyota pickup + outboard motor across the English Channel, then a Civic can certainly handle the North Atlantic ...

However, just one tiny logistical 'fly in the ointment' ... the barge-load of fuel you'd have to tow behind you ! ...

The Bering Strait crossing is looking better already ... mind you, I think I'll be waiting until the proposed Tunnel is built !!! ...

(Alternatively, if anyone knows of any reliable Polar Bears, we could have a guided tour ?) ...
