It is my turn. This was suggested as the final destination for the September 13th drive. We will still meet at Panera in Mayfield (just a little earlier maybe 8am?) and then drive over to the Steel Yard Commons event (for those interested in hanging out the rest of the day). Here are the details for the "after drive" event:

The 6th Annual Hot Pursuit By The Shore car show will be held Saturday, September 13, 2008 at STEELYARD COMMONS!

10:00am - 3:00pm
$7 register by 8/31 or $10 day of event
Registration forms are available- click here

Directions to STEELYARD COMMONS can be downloaded here.
This car show is sponsored by www.clevelandcreditunion.com and the Cleveland Police Law Enforcement Explorers (a branch of the Boy Scouts). This annual car show includes music, food, non-alcoholic beverages, free I.D. cards for kids, and even a performance by Kelvis (yes it’s true, Elvis lives!).

 

All hail the KING!

 

Sorry won't be there...its my b-day weekend and we are going to a B&B on Put In Bay that a friend of ours owns (one of Moose's managers from Home Depot)....its called the Black Squirrel B&B ironically enough!

 

I know I will be at breakfast but I think I will be missing the car show!

 

and MM

 

who is going to breakfast?
Car Show?

 

Will be at breakfast and car show, don't know for how long.

 

I might try to make it.....driving back to Ohio today

 

Hope to see you!!!!

 

Well, after some discussions about the car show or drive I've decided to map out a drive on the eastside. Looks like Mowse (Greg) might not make either. It will not be a crazy rally like the Czar has planned for October. Just a simple route taking us to Squire's Castle then down 174 and eventually ending up in downtown Chagrin Falls. If someone has a better/different idea'r let me know.


WHO IS COMING ON SATURDAY??????? If there is no interest in a drive please let me know.

 

Is anyone going on Saturday to Panera's

Looks like the weather is going to be YUCK so we will cancel the drive.

See you at 9am!

 

I will be there at 9 am.

 

I was planning on the car show .... But the weather looks like crap ...

 

Because of the Yuck weather forcast we are canceling the drive. Still meet for breakfast. We have a couple of idea planned to go over. a Put-in-Bay trip and of course the Pub event. Bob can fill us in on the October Rally he is putting together. I also want to see who'd like to drive south to meet the Mid-Ohio Minis. Bring ideas!!!!

 

Hey, after some finagling and favor trading I got my start time pushed back a little! I'd love to meet up with you guys at Panera...I just wanted to make sure...we are meeting at 9am?! I'll be motoring solo as the wiffey wasn't as fortunate as I...

Pete

 

Yep, we meet at 9am Panera's Mayfield Hts. (Golden Gate) near TGIFridays. See you there!!! Some of us even drag our children along (not behind the mini btw).

 

Hey Guys! I know I just left, but I wanted to say again how nice it was to meet everybody this morning! I told Kimoz that meeting new peeps can be stressful, but everyone was really cool!!!

I did want to note on the Put-in-Bay topic...the island is the home to the world's smallest margarita bar, only two seats, so that seems fitting for MINI owners! Just a lil' something to 'sip' on!

Anway...I'm really excited, thanks so much guys!!

 

Welcome and hopefully we did not scare you off. The October drive will be a blast, it is Bob's turn, hopefully he'll show up. If not we'll get the rally info and go w/out him, as usual

We might not start from Panera, so look for his post.

BTW - we ended up doing the "mini" drive ending in Chargin Falls. Nice turn out. Nice meeting you and the yellow clubman. And of course....no Bob

 

So glad you showed up, if you and the wife want to go motoring on a Sunday please let us know. It was great to meet you and looking forward to meeting the club stylist.

 

Another successful gathering, 2 new MINI's. It was great to meet all of you. The weather was a bummer but we had fun anyway. Glad to see everyone again. Hope to see everyone next month for BOB's rally

 

We need to name the Bob Rally.

My ideas are:

RockTobertFest
OctoBert Rally
Don't Pull a BOB Rally

Man, he really needs to go online and reply to the trash postings

 

Sorry you were not able to make it, hopefully you can make it next month.

 

Yah my bad....I've got my suspension off the car as I'm having some new mounts machined. Didn't have the time to get the car driveable by this morning. Next month should make for some good driving weather

 

In October for Bobtoberfest.

I prayed to the Bobus deity today and in a divine vision I learned that we are meeting 10/11 at the Winking Lizard in Independence for the drive.

It's not my call, Lord Bobus will issue instructions from beyond via stone palete. But the W.L. in Peninsula would be a good destination.

 

Lots of good roads between the lizards

Fall colors should be coming out by then right? Anyone want to end the day with a little fall photoshoot? I'd love to snap some photos for everyone The afternoon sun in peninsula makes for some beautiful lighting
