I am feeling all giddy with the warmer weather, just washed and vacuumed my daily driver and had a craving for Jim's burgers.

Just wanted to throw out the idea of another GTG over lunch on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday.

What works for everyone in the next 2-3 weeks?

I doubt I will have the MINI interior done, but I can still drive it as it is, gutted and all

 

Ok, after chatting with Shellbell, we have decided on Wednesday, March 5th, meeting between 11am and 1130am as at noon, they are swamped and it takes forever to get burgers. Shelly is going to try to bring a clubman up, so hopefully she can make that happen

Wednesday, March 5th, 11-1130am meeting time.
Jim's Burger Haven
7855 Sheridan Blvd
Arvada, CO 80003

That works. Lunch on Wed., then scooter goes down to Schomp on the 6th for an oil change and a little tlc.

Perhaps I will get a Clubman for my loaner.

I will pencil Jim's into my Calendar so I don't forget or get sidetracked.

 

Dang I'm out of town that day.

 

awesome Don, it will be great to see you. Shell and I were talking about you today ...all good things, I promise

 

It's far enough in advance, change your travel plans so you can join us for a burger

 

I wish I could. Ft. Worth the 4th though the 6th for business. I love Jim's!

 

bahhhh,.....skip work, we are talking about Jim's afterall

 

I've got it pencil'd in for Wed. I have training in the morning which is scheduled to go through to 12, but I'm betting it will be out early. Hopefully my PM will remain free. I'm looking forward to see you all there.

 

Never been, would love to go, but I usually am so busy at work that I rarely have time to eat lunch in. Lunch out is pretty impossible... besides, I work in the Meridian business park area - it's too far away to get away for lunch.

 

I hear ya; Jims is just too darn far for those of us who work South of Denver. If you guys planned it on a weekend I'm sure you'd get a much better turnout.

I don't think there's anywhere like Jims on the south end, but if there's any other good spot maybe we can arrange for a Southern lunch event sometime.

 

well, I work every weekend, have done so for 9 years...so I can only do a week day GTG...so I occasionally plan these lunches. I Live in Parker, but have a TON of car buddies that still live and work on the north side of town, so I plan these to GTG with them...and always want the MINI crowd there.

I will leave it up to you all to plan weekend burgers, but in a different thread

 

Come on Vicki!! ONE DAY to take a nice long "executive lunch"!!

 

bump for a week from now . mmmmm....burgers!!!!

 

Good reminder, I think I will go with the small cheese and stay away from the green chili side.

11:15?

 

I will be there around 11am or so, and Jon, Minidamoocher, will be joining me as we are working on his stripes in the am.

There are some Audi guys coming, one owns an RS4, and possibly Brian, owner of Avalon Motorsports http://www.avalonmotorsports.com/ He does not do anything MINI related, but he is a great guy. Maybe we can sway him to become a MINI performance tuner as we are lacking consistent support here in Colorado.

 

Any burger requiring an underhand technique and Mutley safety helmet is HUGE!!!!! I cant wait until Wednesday Great Pic Jon!

 

haha...it is fitting, as that is how I feel when I get there

just FYI...from the other local club I spend time with, we are looking at 10-12 others so far that are joining us....may be more as it is still a week away. Not bad for a week day GTG lunch. Then count in the MINI folks... . I think we are gonna be out numbered by a few, Audis:MINI ratio that is.

 

this is who is going thus far:

03Indigo
gragravar
urS4guy
ELUSIVE
WagonBoy
brian@avalonmotorsports
Reggie
Pat
chimchim101
dubaudi
tommy_zito
MiniDaMoocher
old81
Shellbell

there are others, they are just not 100% as of yet.

 

more have been added to the list, and for those that make it, and if the weather holds out, I will be bringing my half done new interior

 

updated the list, 4 more folks added. If I forgot you, let me know, I can add you to the list

 

Not bad for a weekDAY lunch!!

 

I KNOW!!!!

Shelly, are you going to be bringing a Clubman S? I think you should try to bring one up for the Audi guys to see

 

I don't know. The AB JCW Sidewalk sitting in the showroom's pretty nice

 

Hope to see y'all there. We just got about 8" of the white stuff here (I'm right near Wondervu) so I may not have MR MINI with me. Got three days of rides in last week tho!!
