When your registered for MITM, we noted that all registrants will be receiving an e-copy of the Maps, Logistics, and Agenda by email prior to the event. That will happen on or about August 3rd, Friday before the event.
You have the agenda here, or most of it. You will also get detailed maps regarding the rides and the logistics with the 'details' of the things you need to know.
So yes, but not just yet. We will do this right after we close registration.
How is the Ralph Schomp MINI Pit Lane going to be run? Do we have to make an appointment? I have a list of a few issues I've been having with SPOON hehe.
__________________ When confronted by a difficult problem, you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger handle this?
The factory mechanic will be on hand. He will not have computer diagnostics nor all the tools he needs. Further, he will have a limited inventory of parts - those that can be used with a floor jack.
The whole point of the pit stop if your safety and comfort. Ralph Schomp MINI, at no expense to you, us or MITM, is giving us the courtesy of a professional advisor who will perform basic and rudimentary services. Further, and if needed, they will advise you about how to address any problems you have.
Please don't expect to have the same service options and choices you might have at the dealership. However, you can expect to have the same fast, fair and friendly folks who will help you with anything MINI that they can.
location of Tech Talks has been added for Friday and Saturday afternoons. Please see schedule below.

a sunup ride to Loveland Pass, at 5 am. I just decided that I would be too tired to do it...but that does not mean you cannot.
We decided, based on last year's movements, that more pp would go to FRISCO for breakfast, line Main St., and say their goodbyes that way....than get up for a ride. So we scrubbed it.
We have a board for 'impromptu' rides..we can still post it and do it if you like.
When confronted by a difficult problem, you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger handle this?
