Coffee and a nice Saturday drive - sounds like fun!

Meetup at 9AM at the Java Junction, which is located at the train station in downtown Gaithersburg.

Drive would begin at 10:30, with routes through upper MoCo and maybe a dip into VA and WVA.

Members and non-members welcome. No RSVP required. PM me with any questions!

 

It definitely sounds like fun indeed.

Participants, please have your name on the list so the organizer will have an idea of how long the caravan line is going to be.



I found this information:

I've been lurking for sometime now and been wanting to check out one of these events, especially if its right around the corner.... i got a 06 MCS last summer from carmax over in sterling, been loving every drive since

 

Please come and join us.

MINIs, Twisties and Coffee always go well together.

 

my wife's bday is the 7th. I'd be down or maybe we'll be down if there aren't other plans that Saturday.

 

Sounds like fun! I live right nearby in Rockville. Eric and I will be attending.

Awesome ...

Looking forward to meet you all on the day.

 

any idea of how long the run would last? not that it really matters, just to get an idea of what else i can plan for that day. also, would we be returning to Java Junction after the run or would it end somewhere else? just so i can know where to get directions home from as ive never been to gaithersburg. thanks in advance for any info.

 

The plan is for a two-hour ride, and we can end it back at Java Junction if you like.

 

thanks for such a speedy response. it doesnt really matter where it ends, im flexible. i would just like to know ahead of time so i can mapquest it. whatever is decided, let me know. and thanks again.

 

For me, 2 hours to 2 1/2 hours is a perfect length.

With the average of 35 miles/hour, plus a short break in between the run. The run of 70 miles (+ or - 10) is about right.

I saw part of the route today...... hint...hint..

This is will be a fun run indeed.

 

Awww, Wish I could join, however I have to work on Saturdays... :(

Not bad at all.

 

Went out and did a dry run yesterday. Unfortunately, a lot of my favorite roads are in poor shape right now - lots of crumbling shoulders and potholes. I've got a pretty good one going, though.

Tentative plan is to meetup at 9AM, hit the road at 10:30, stop for lunch at the Brunswick diner, and return.

 

unfortunately, it looks like i wont be able to make this one. i know i told you guys when we met at panera that i would be there, but it just so happens that i have a test that day for martial arts. so i'll have to catch the next one.

 

I just found out relatives are visiting this weekend, so I can't make it to this run. I'm so bummed! It's close by and all. Oh well. Have fun everyone!

bummer!

For those attending, please be sure to RSVP on the events page. Also, if you have a two-way radio, bring it along.

 

Bev and I think we can make this run. Unless something comes up last second, our schedule is clear.

Glenn

 

Wait, I just remembered family's not coming till noon, so Eric and I can make it for coffee at least. Then I can see everyone and chat a little bit. See everyone at 9! (MrMellowYellow-glad you and Bev will be able to make it!)

Christine

 

Too bad you all aren't going out today! High 75!?! I am going out right now and washing Cecilia. LOVE working nights and not working every day!!

 

I'm game...been stuck in the house all week with a cold. I'm better now, and need to get out...

 

Excellent!

 

where did you all buy your 2-way radios? i just want to make sure i get the right one so the frequencies are the same

i am soooo excited.

 

you can buy them from just about any electronics retailer...BestBuy, Circuit City, Radio Shack...even big box stores have 'em. Just make sure the set you buy has subsets for each channel. Most runs use Channel 7, subset 21.

Any of those will work.

See you on Saturday.
