Possible idea for a run in VA during Spring

I love all of the other ideas. Being a transplant to Virginia - there are lots of nice areas around here.

I have an idea for a run that goes on Rt7 past Leesburg towards Berryville, then over the mountains (specifically Mt.Weather) then back to either 50 or 66. Lots of twisties and plenty of opportunities to test driving skills up and down. Let me know what you think - and if there is enough interest - I'll try to work the route.

For those interested in an impromptu car show - near downtown Manassas there is a Five Guys on the intersection of Rt 28 and 234. Nice sized lot and during the spring and summer is alternates activity between the muscle car (Mustang's and Chargers and the JDM crowd. It would be nice to have a large turnout of Mini's.

I think It will be a good Spring's season event.

A large turnout of MINIs would be a great idea ! They can help me eat all of those bloody fries you get in your greasy bag ! Oh how I love their burgers so !

Count me in unless work sends me somewhere

Cheers,

Do they gather Fridays or Saturdays ? It might be a fitting end of a week to take half a day off and go play with our MINIs
