Matt, take the back roads so you don't have to flog the old girl. Back roads are more fun anyway. Flogging down the interstate well & truly sucks.

lump.. I mean bump. We're goin'

 

boink

 

(I know I posted this everywere I could)

I am stoked to make it.. I need to start makeing some more mini Meets.. the Evo People are getting to me (Even tho one is comming with me!.. sheesh)

 

So who is going? Great place. Going to have PRIZES!!! AND a Band!!! We went to the MINI gathering there last fall and had an AWESOME time.

Hope to see maybe some weedhoppers or silverbacks attend I understand there is another brit event down south...but...this is a kick-off of what should become a popular place for minis to gather up north. Be a part of history

Hope to see you there

 

I'm planning ... Hoping to have my new rims on ect by then

 

10 am parade

 

Parade? We're doing a parade now too?

I saw that Aaron had included our event in his Outmotoring MINI Times Newsletter that came in my email today. I had to click on the link to see where it took me.

 

Hi Mark! Get to the PUB before 10 AM for a parade/cruise through the metropark (basically next door to the PUB) that should have us back by 11:30 am.Wasn't in the original plan, but then again, neither were the strippers.

 

Looks like my poor car won't be attending - motor mounts are FUBARed and I have a split CV boot - nothing too bad, but bad enough that a multi-hour drive is ill-advised. So, I can either drive up for this, or get my car to the British Car Show here in Columbus (which is only about 10 mil;es away as the crow flies)...

Descisions... decisions... Dammit.

 

Dude! I'm counting on you to be the leader of the Columbus contigency. There are British car shows all summer long. But only one PUB bash per year. And with a rocking band, $1000 in awesome (Classic donated) Mini prizes, and 100+ Minis I guaranteed a much cooler day.Besides, that car show is Saturday too!

 

(Sigh)... I'm so torn. Lemme get with the missus and see what's up. After MOTD and some personal/family BS that we've been dealing with, I'm a bit burned out ATM, I'm afraid...

 

self promoting bump

 

I'll be there, I'm looking forward to it!
Who wants to help me kidnap Crashton and drag that LAME old man up to Cleveland? I think he should make the trip.

Jason

 

<raises hand>

Wait a minute. I was just voting in a positive nature. I don't think I'm up to come down and help get him back up here. Then again . . . . maybe.

 

We now have a genuine British babe to MC!

 

Greg this looks almost as fun as MOTD. Are you the only one coordinating this event?

I'm going if the forecast is clear. Looking forward to the parade and enjoying the pub's atmosphere.

 

i'm bringing someone.. she will do the drinking.. i will stay sober!

 

The weather outlook is bleak. Prolly wash ToBFree only to get it all dirty driving to Cleveland. But I'm going anyway. Need the attitude adjustment.

 

Sure hope to see you dude. Yup, this is all me throwing this bash. Will be awesome I promise!

 

Since we have the british weather, the Pub, the cars, and a british babe MC, I request that no one brush their teeth and eat fish for breakfast Sunday.

 

Anyone have any pictures from this event??

I get spoiled by Chuck and all his great pictures.........too bad he can't be two places at once...........

 

We are quite spoiled with all Chuck's quick turnaround on pictures. That and the fact that there are usually a couple of other people snapping pictures as well.

 

80+ cars! 40+ cool prizes given away. great band, food, drink, parade, t-shirts. We had many out of staters who said "well worth the drive" "best Mini event ever".Don't miss 2009! What a party it was!
