How long does the run take (adding in food/ice cream stops)? I've got to motor down south to Newport News that same evening, so I'm trying to figure out an ETA down there after the run.
I don't think anyone has an actual map of the run online, but there will be a route (turn-by-turn driving directions) posted here soon!

Typically, they have been wrapping up in the early afternoon, About 1 or 2-ish.

I think we are in....I may be riding with Paul! for photo ops. Still deciding if I will be attending.

I'm trying to talk Paul! into leading the run though, whether I attend or not.

i may or may not be able to attend. I might be doing a track day that day. i'm on the waiting list for that so we'll see how it goes.

I would love to go on this run though, cuz i couldn't go last year, cuz ahem i didn't quite have my MINI yet by that time... i think.

Hey all, it looks like that I will indeed be able to lead this run! Please RSVP early so I can give an accurate head count to the restaurant.

Why do you think I am suspicious? Of course I want you to be there! He may as well, of course I can just add +1 to you. Thinking of that, I guess I need to make Jay RSVP.

Not sure if my MINI will be back from MoS by then... but if not, at least I will be able to go in a MINI! I had an MCcvt loaner since Monday (when I dropped it off), but today they called me since they had an MCSa come back in, and I was able to swap out loaners. Not a stick shift but at least it has a bit more gusto!

Hi all,
I will attend on Sunday's drive.
. In the post, it says to PM if you are bringing someone else, but no PM link was there.
I'll bring my wife, and our new toy, a 2003 cooper.
Thanks,
Gary Evans

First of all, WELCOME! Second of all, I will add your wife. Third, look in the top right corner of your screen, under the MINIs you will see the welcome and under that is a link to private messages. Click that, and it will take you to another screen (your 'in box') once in there on the left you will see a link to send new messages that will open up the message and bam you are there! Or you can click on a person's name and a drop down menu will appear and you can send a pm from there as well.
Welcome to the club and look forward to meeting you on the road!

My wife and I will be attend this as our first driving event! Not sure which car we will be bringing, though, since it depends on the weather and the ability to open the sun roof in her MCS.
