G'day All,

I Think it would be great to do a DCMM club run with one of the founding members

Date: The Run will be May 20th (Saturday) start time at 12:00 noon

lunch: (late) will be at the Red Byrd Restauraunt and Motel (I have a group booking at 2pm) Sorry that is all they had (but I need to know numbers soon so that I can let them know).

Event Fee: No fee for DCMM members. $5 fee per car for non-DCMM members. Cash or check can be brought to the event.

I have never been out there yet, any one know a good place to meet up ???

The 20th sounds great for us! And I also have those mirror caps for ya! Count us in for that day!

 

the 27th would be better for me.

 

Like MiniNurse, the 20th is good. I work on the 27th.

 

The 20th is best for us.

MiniNurse.... are you passing on those mirror caps already?!

 

argghh. i'm on tdy on both of those dates.

carry on...

 

ok, heres the deal... My best friend is having her thirtieth birthday parties on both Saturday AND sunday. One being hosted by friends around 4 pm on saturday... one being hosted by her parents around five on Sunday. (if we are planning anything at Union Jacks on sunday, I can come later in the evening)

I rode the run with Edge last year when we went by ourselves and I know that part of the run is on the same road as the party location, just after the stop at the battlefield. Any ideas on what time we will be doing the run? and at what time would we be making the lunch stop? I am trying to cooridinate both since so far it sounds like the 20th is the better day. MINInurse HAS to go so that she can take videos!!

After all... my friends birthday IS important... but I also want to motor!!!

 

20th works for me too.. I'm looking forward to it.

 

20th works for me.

1 + 2, probably

 

I prefer the 27th. I have autocross on the 20th !!

uh huh...we were going to go black all around. Well...NOT now!! It just doesn't work well with the dragon.


I think I am going to bring a fellow MINI owner from work with me. I really want her to see what she is missing by not being in the club and she is off that day. So the sooner we have details about times and stuff the better..

Ssallykat...I will bring the camera. Jay will be driving. I have to work the 19th so I am going to be a ZOMBIE!! There will be toothpicks in my eyelids keeping them open, but as long as I don't annoy Jay, I can video. I haven't had a chance to look at the one from MOTD yet, I will today though...had to work last night...that was tough...i need a vacation from my vacation..

 

Isn't the 20th the same day as the breakfast at Sterling?

 

Was down at MoS yesterday and there is nothing booked at MoS for us that date:

 

20th works for me...

This will be like a birthday run for me..my bday is the 17th! yippie! nice to be out motoring for your birthday!

 

Ok: renamed this event to "backroads, battlefields and MiniNurse's Birthday club event"

 

Mark and Wanda will be there with 1FNMINI

 

We will be there! 1 MINI - 2 people.

 

In addition to this I am working on getting a price for a cling for this event .... so my question is do you all want a cling... I think the price would be no more than about $5.00 each, I am getting quotes from cooperflags and kinko's. I will post back here when I get some idea about costs.

Ok Update: A little birdie told me that the DCMM club MAY be able to pay for the clings....I will keep you informed !! (I know .... I am a double spy as I am a board member too).

 

You know I want one.

 

That WON"T fit on the cling! :-)

 

wow..you'll still be here?? COOL! Wanna be my passenger? Oh...yeah...I'm RSVPing for me attending (yikes..bad grammar). If there's autocross that day, Paul won't be attending.

 

Yes - I will still be here - kinda why I - behind the scenes - asked one of the members if a run could happen sometime in May as I'd love to enjoy some MINI time while here. I go back to CA on June 1.... I think I'm riding with Kurt as he lives near my hotel and it's easy for him to swing by and pick me up - but we're still working out those details... But you know I appreciate the offer.

I thought 3rd Saturday of the month is usually a breakfast at whatever dealer.

Anyway, I'll be at the drive. Last year we met up in the parking lot of the mall in Frederick. I think that's on the route sheet. I remember meeting up with Jen, Paul, and someone else before hand for breakfast.

 

Yes Matt you are right it is usually the third Saturday of the month, but seeing that is going to be our B&B run, I did not talk to MoS about the breakfast instead we will do our B&B run. So as MoS did not have anything planned for us to turn up, and the weekend after that was a holiday then we thought we would drop the breakfast this month and have the kart event the following 3rd Sat of the month (17th June).

Ok I will count you in for the B&B run and yes maybe the Frederick mall for a late breaky would work... I will look in to it... thanks mate
