In Arlington Va Sat & Sun 1/29-1/30 Want to Motor?

Hi :smile: I'll be at the Sheraton National Hotel in Arlington Va this Weekend. My son is in the Halo2 tourny, don't feel like sitting in the hotel all weekend and I'd like to go out and find some twisties . Anybody up for it?? I love a high spirited run, and don't know the roads down there.
I'm an active staff member of NEMINI.org and would love to meet some Miniacs from Va & D.C. Please respond either by posting or e-mail to scott AT ramcaterers dot com

Thanks-see you this weekend
Scott

Do you mean this weekend? Your post has February dates inthe field but I am pretty sure you mean this weekend.

I would love to go for a drive, but I am on my way out of town with my sister for a few days. Hopefully some folks will respond to you. We are a very friendly group who are fairly spontaneous.

If you can't find anyone to motor with I'd be happy to e mail you some routes we have done in the Metro area before that you could run out and try solo.

Yes it is THIS weekend could you please e-mail some routes for just in case I don't hook up with anyone to motor with.

Thank you,

Maybe we'll motor together on another day.
Have fun with Sis.

Saturday is out, helping with a Boy Scout camp out. I believe that Sunday is open, just have to check with "she who must be obeyed" and look into a couple of things. I will get back to you later this evening or early tomorrow.

10-10:30 is fine by me, doesn't really matter when WE finish as my son will be with friends and I have a hotel room. To answer your "SHE WHO MUST BE OBEYED"-stuff her in the boot -only joking -also married and know how that works,easier to agree, have to pick and choose your fights and 99% of them aren't worth the fight.

I'm up for a run! Well, as long as the weather holds, as my tires are not what they once were! (I'll have a set of new ones soon enough, though) Saturday is looking good!

My best guess will be in the No Va area, I was also thinking about going out River Road on out to the Poolesville area. Those are my thoughts for right now. :smile:

Right now I'm shooting for 10:30am at the Sheraton National Hotel in Arlington Va. The hotel is located at 900 S. Orme Street, Arlington, VA. Of course this is still dependent on the weather as too how far we may actually travel.

This the current forecast from Yahoo!! :
Sunday: Periods of snow, sleet or freezing rain. High around 35F. Winds light and variable. Chance of precip 70%. Snow accumulating 1 to 2 inches.

Stay tuned, I think it may change....

Err, I think that I'm gonna say that I'm going to stay in today! In Alexandria, there's a lovely mix of snow, sleet, and ice on the roads. I'm guessing though that's the story in the greater DC area.

Sorry Scott, we tried!
