Mini mini runs

I don't remember the different runs being limited to 20-30 Minis .
Is this something new or did I just not give it any attention last year?
There are several runs that I would like to make but it seems that most
are quite restricted in the amount of Minis that can attend.

There really weren't any runs last year that were put together in advance. The year before there were and yes they were limited. Realize that an endless amount of MINIs can make for a logisitical nightmare. People get separated, lost, overcrowd the destination.

No one says you can't do the run. If the runs book up fast just get the run info from the coordinator and add another one yourself. You can be #1 and 29 others can then join you.

Oh, I see.. I thought maybe there would only be one run and it would be
limited to only 30 cars.
I have no problem coordinating with others to set up additional runs, we typically run around no more than 20 minis for the same reasons.

yep, like Matt said. We found that over 30 MINIs it can be hard to keep the convoy going and if lunch is involved it can be hard to find a place for over 60 people (based on 2 people per MINI). If a run you are interested books up, we would love for someone to step up and offer to lead a second run. We will be happy to provide all the necessary info.

Sounds great .
I just realized today that I have less than a couple of months to get the Mini ready so I'm trying to get everything coordinated.
I think I have a picture of your car from last year.. Is this you?
