Vicenza!
 

Well, I am down in Vicenza for a month or so and I brought my MINI (like I would drive something else... :roll:)

Anyone here in the area want to meet up? I will have weekends free, so I'll be in the hotel and bored. Guess my MINI will get lots of pampering. :thumbsup:

Not fair!

I'll be heading your way in October, so quit whining. :wink:

Sure
 

I'm still in the area, well for a week anyway. Meet you half way?

I'm free this weekend and could definetly run that direction. Where did you have in mind?

Anywhere
 

There are some killer runs up here near Aviano. I'm going to go today after work and run around a lake. Let me know what you have in mind. I'm game for anything.

I could drive up to Aviano...... I've never been up that way and thing that it would be nice to see that area. :)

PM Sent
 

Sent you a PM. The only plans I have this weekend involves a few beers Saturday with some friends.

I'll head up there tomorrow morning. I got your number. :) I'll give you a call when I get there.

HA!!! And You have room to talk ???:sly:

NOT... I AM CRUSHED !!!

I hear that drive to Italy over the alps is breath taking...

One word... LUCKY

LOL, Met up with Ornery today and had a really good time. He took me for a spin up into the Dolomites Italian style :) Super nice guy and I hope that we can get together again before I leave out of here. :) Missed all you folks, you would really enjoy these twisties!

Thanks

Soooo unfair. I haven't seen a Mini in this country since I was in the capital in April! Not even good car-porn to buy and read!

Awesome! I would love to post some of my pics, but I have the work computer and no good editing software.

Went to Venice today... AWESOME!!!!

Hello daflake and abuzavi!!
I haven't seen a Mini in this country either since I came to Kuwait 2 weeks ago. Watch out with the cameras in Italy... Henry

Henry, you didn't pack yours to go with you? It's fit in an ISU!

Show offs.....:lol:

Trying to figure out how to pack it now... ;)

You, daflake, you just need to drive down here. Too many good twisties between here and there to not drive!

No this time!!
I'm back in Germany. Kuwait was too HOT.......
How much time do you have left in that country?
Henry

Looks like I'll be in Vicenza for the week or so after Thanksgiving -- and in Florence for the Marathon that Saturday. Am seriously thinking about driving down -- too many twisties to fly!

If you are in Vicenza, you should make a trip up to Asiago. Lots of good twisties!

Wow!!
 

Fellas,

Just a quick note about the World's Best Driving Road, according to those renowned experts, Top Gear, the Selvio Pass. I'm in Switzerland now and will post a complete trip report later. I was able to get to the pass yesterday and even got some postcards and happy snaps, however, there was TOO much SNOW to actually drive it!! Absolutely some of the craziest roads, to be sure, and definitely some technical roads, too. Details to follow.

Cheers!!
