Are there any fun runs planned for September ?

Perhaps the idea of a run ending up at Union Jack's on the 9th ?

We (Wensley, Wifey and myself) have wanted to go on a run since earlier this year but work and family plans have conflicted with the club schedules. In fact, I'm afraid to even post this, not knowing what work has in store.....I'm so bummed that we missed so many but we really want to participate !

If no run is planned, hope the next one is not October 6th ! I'm already booked :impatient

Cheers !

Mike

I snuck Wensley into the shop at work for a wax

 

We can do a run on Sat, Sept 22nd in the morning to Mach V Dyno event.

Start from Hains Point - GW parkway - Great Falls - Some twisty local roads - Mach V.

 

Anything happening this weekend?

 

My wife's birthday.

 

y'all can always plan a run..

 

Do you wanna hang-out on Sat night?

 

I was hoping to lead a run this month, but work is crazy. My schedule right now is three twelve-hour watches from 8PM to 8AM in a row, one watch off, then going right back into another three. I don't have enough time to go on a drive down the street, much less plan and lead a run.

If someone feels up to it though, I don't think anyone has led a run through the mountains and valleys in western VA this year! That was always one of my favorites!


-Paul!

 

That sounds good. Or if folks want a shorter drive...we've got some great little twisties around Northern VA, as well as a few good wineries to explore.

 

Were you asking me? That is a def possibility...Let me PM you because my wife is talking about making a spontaneous trip somewhere....

 

Can't PM, the site will be down in less than 2 hrs. Email me.
I'll be in Fairfax, on Sat night after 8pm. May be I can try some night shot of your MINI. Let me know. I will bring my gears.

 

OOOOOOOOooooooooo....now that sounds kinda cool

 

3 locations that I have in mind: Bethesda, Md., Montrose Crossing, Rockville, Md and near Arlington Court house Va. I preferr Bethesda though.
Let me know.

 

Now would you want a student pilot as your Captain on your Southwest flight to your destination

We newbies depend on the old hares to help guide us go forth in our quest for Mini fun

It appears that there may not be enough interest for a run, do big deal, we'll shoot for the next one.

Cheers,

Mike

I want to do a run this month too!! I plan to have new tires that will need some breaking in

 

people take the leap and lead runs for the 1st time, all the time....mistakes are made, lessons are learned...and we still have fun. Every run started with one brave soul, willing to try.

Whether it's 2 cars or 20...it's a group of folks enjoying themselves.

Ya never know, a run you might put together could become a yearly event, if you're willing to spend time mapping and organizing. I bet a veteran or 2 could even help There are also files of routes...somewhere..I'm not sure who has them. Ask.

 

The reason why we don't have any runs planned is...because...no one planned one! So...PLAN ONE!!

 

Ok, I will be the "one brave soul".

Please meet me @ Hains Point, East Potomac Park, DC. Sat, Sept 22nd at 9am.

It will be a fun & short "MINI show-off" run, will finish at Mach V dyno event (maybe a picnic for lunch, not sure yet).

Detail and routing to be followed.

 

"MINI Show-Off" run.

Saturday, Sept 22nd. meeting time is 9am.

Here is the meeting location:
Hains Point, East Potomac Park, DC.

Don't forget to make your MINI shiny clean, for photo ops.

 

Have fun.

 

Just don't lose anyone, ok Chris?

 

I might join you, though it is a bit off course to go from Ashburn to Sterling via DC .

 

It will sure be fun.

The format will be as follow:

"From the starting point, we will start by letting the cars go one at a time in one minute interval, by picking their own route. Who make the shortest time to Mach V, win." JK,....

Actually, It will be a short run through some twisty, rolling local road and GW parkway. Plus, if the weather permited, we might do some photo session at the starting point and at Mach V.

This should be fun, there are quite a few hidden gems (nice twisty roads) in and around Fairfax, Mclean, Sterling and Herndon area.
I'd appreciate some advice regarding to routing as well.

More detail is coming soon in the different thread. Stay tune.

 

im planning a run to my local taco bell tonite lol

 

lol....where?

 

Wah!??? I didn't breakin the tires either? :-)
