First: I tagged a 05-06 MC HB/W @ Arundel Mills tonight.

Second: I was so shooken up when a PG County cop pulled up behind me @ the Post Office. He put down his window and said, "Mark?" I of course answered with, "Yes". "Its me SuperCoops!". At this point I am half startled and have laughing. He tells me how he misses driving his car due to working so much. What a relief..haha

So to this I am very happy to have a fellow MINIAC living in my town, who is a cop

Maybe he should have done a "Felony Stop" on MDS That is the siren, lights, "Driver, turn off the vehicle, put both hands out of the window, open your door from the outside, walk backwards towards my voice, ......." Minus the firearm since it is a joke I could see MDS now, "What the heck did I do!?!?!"

Yesterday, 10/13th, ~12:30, Rockville - CR/Checkered

w/what looked like 5 guys in it! You were making a right off of Gaither Road, where I was making a left onto Gaither Road, at King's Farm development, near the Mobil.

Thanks for the wave! Love the roof!

My First Tag

Last evening, Friday, around 6:30. Your PW/B MCS was parked in the Chili's restaurant parking lot. I tagged you. You were my first.

By the way, I had the Tomato & Basil Chicken and Pasta. How about you ?

I hate it when I hit a dry spell--that happened to me right after starting to post on this thread, poof!!! No more MINIs until recently.

Yep! And I tagged it!

Thanks Paul! for showing Melanie and I those great roads near Skyline drive.
The scenery was so nice, the view from the lookout tower was breathtaking, The cheesesticks rivaled UJs, and the pumpkin spice beer was delicious.

Melanie was saying she wanted to go on another drive before she packs her MINI on a boat. Im glad we got to give her a drive to remember!

nice! I've only been up there in the old Jeep....first date with wifey was the run north to the fire tower from Edinburgh Gap Rd (Land Rover Club Trail). I guess there's an easier way to get there besides climbing boulders, water crossings and the like?

Only slightly! We took Woodstock Tower Rd off of Fort Valley Rd (Rt. 678). The road turns into a gravel/dirt road halfway up. It's not really meant for MINIs, but they made it up fine! In fact, I think I messed up my alignment (again!) traveling up and down the road! Plus, my MINI is still a dustball from the road!

Ah well, it was worth it for the view!

I actually was considering putting DMS 50mm Gravel/Rally coilovers on my new MINI. Raise it up 2-3 inches, some 15" dirt rally tires and mudflaps and take it off some sweet jumps. Seriously. Would that be wrong?

I saw an IB/W MC w/White Bonnet Stripes last night at the Safeway in Eldersburg.

Wasn't there when I parked to get a couple things real quick, it was there when I came back out though.

I see that one around town a lot, Matt. Quick to give a wave, too. Been trying to catch it parked so I can tag it.

Just got back from lunch, where I tagged an 05/06 CR/W MCS with white bonnet stripes, S-Lites and Maryland plates (including MINI of Towson plate frame) and a "dental school" cling in the rear window. You parked right next to me - this was at the Pan-Am shopping center in Fairfax, off Nutley and Lee Highway.
