Berkshires/Green Mountains Fall Run I - Oct 5

Hi Folks, This is an attempt to get info to everyone about tomorrow's run, since NEMINI is down for a couple of days!!!

This is really screwed up. I posted the schedule, etc. at NEMINI last night, and by 8am this morning the site was down.

Meet Sunday morning at Guido's grocery, 760 South Main Street, Great Barrington, MA.

We are leaving at 930am sharp.

Bring lunch. Figure 4 hours of seat time.

PLEASE email me at harry15 (at) mindspring.com or post here if you are coming and have found your way here. Phone number is 860 379 5559 ...

Harry

What a great run! Thanks, Harry for organizing and leading it. Thanks, Brian for loaning me your radio. It was great meeting all of the new folks. I must say, I haven't been on a run that had so many great smooth twisties and such nice people. We didn't get stuck behind too many slow pokes for too long, either. Hope everyone made it home safely. Until next time...

I figured I'd post a few pictures here. Thanks to Harry for taking the shots from the Monument for me.

sorry we missed you guys well we had a nice ride anyways. went up through vt then back down to mass to the yankee candle store. There we met up with a couple who just picked up a white silver S with sidewalk package. They also just ordered a clubman. While chatting with them they suggested going up to stowe vt thay say the roads are made for minis. the last time they were up there they didn't have the mini they had a "regular car"

miniblue, did you meet those people by chance, or did you know them beforehand? Sounds like you had a nice day too. We missed you though! And Scooter was the only cabrio...he felt a lil out of place, hehe.

Hi Friends,

Thanks for a great day on Sunday. I'm glad that everyone had a fine time and I really enjoyed driving with you all. I know that it was a long cruise but the roads made it worth it, right?

Thanks for the photos!

Now that NEMINI is back up, we can take the thread over there. I'd like to see pics posted there if anyone is so motivated...

Thanks again!!
