Graham will be in the area 16--22 Nov, and I think he needs a welcome delegation! I was thinking maybe Primanti's, in the strip? Parking is generally pretty easy/cheap, and nothing says "welcome to Pittsburgh" like fries and cole slaw...

So, I guess the next logical step is to determine who wants to come and when they're available... Start weighing in on dates!



PS. Dallas/Ft Worth has a great community--let's give 'em a run for their money in the enthusiasm department!

Toastie,

I know I'm not in your region, but....who is Graham? Maybe if you explain a bit more, you'll get more of a response? Just my .02...tee hee!

Ok... Saturday 22 Nov.

7pm

Primanti Brothers--Strip District


I can't think of any place we'd be able to park together, but there's metered (I think it's metered?) parking available on Penn and then there are the little men in the kiosks who run the loading bay parking right on Smallman.

Anyone who wants to come, please do! We'll meet outside of Primanti's and head on in around 7. If you're interested, but don't know if you can make it, or think that you can make it but not til later, PM me for my cell# and you can just call when/if you get there.

I do hope people decide to come!

Thanks Kelley for setting this up. I'm looking forward to Pittsburgh and getting my 2nd MINI performance business up and running. I'm inundated now down here now that our club knows I am leaving even though I am maintaining the shop down here.

Here's a new development in the mods business. I have people now financing their mods with their car payment and the finance company is cuttting me a check! I can do all of the performance mods as well as a total suspension package under this agreement. Some of the PittstopMINI folks might be interested in this if they have a car on order.

Graham
