Yalla Yalla 2013



Folks,

There is a new Sheriff in town, and he said you are going to this year's Yalla Yalla.

Starting Location: The corner of 95th Street and Arapahoe Road in Boulder County. The location is better known as the gathering site for "Cars & Coffee" in west Lafayette. 2770 Arapahoe Rd #102, Lafayette, CO 80026

Date: November 2nd, 2013.

Time: The Sheriff said to come down early and see all the cars but no latter than 9:45 because we ride at 10:00 AM sharp.

Sign up HERE and we will mark you down as law-abiding citizens.

Deputy Robert

Do it, it will be fun, rain or shine.

Raffle with a nice end-point gathering. It is Yalla Yalla so you will find out the day of the event.

See you there...

Don

Okay okay,

You don't like being told what to do, but Sheriff Cooper wants you to come to Yalla Yalla this year.

So sign up, more information to come latter as always with Yalla Yalla.

We are the Federales, you know, the Mounted Police, and we want everyone to come to Yalla Yalla on Saturday November 2nd.

By the way, this was a selfie of me that I made back in high school photography.

Although I'd like to repeat as Yalla Yalla winner (2012) we will be out of town that weekend..

So now that everyone else has a chance to win I say saddle up and get your 190 or so horses to the event. Lots of fun (I think I've done 5 or 6?) and usually some great prizes!

psst.. YY is a very "unique" MINI annual scavenger hunt..

Don't tell'em I told ya or I'll meet you at sundown pardner.. (que: Clint Eastwood spaghetti western music..)

4. A Musical discovery.
5. A Mysterious Journey to an Unknown Destination.

I would like to give an early shout out to let everyone know that Artistic Reflection, www.artisticreflection.com is an official sponsor of this year's event.

The folks (Kristan) over at Artistic Reflection have been on board with this year's event from the get-go, helping with our Yalla Yalla graphics and supplies.
There is no need to wait until November 2nd, head over to www.artisticreflection.com for some great accessories to dress up your MINI, Mini, or any other vehicle you have.

So, if you were on the fence about coming to Yalla Yalla this year, I hope this news helped change your mind. You don't want to miss out on this great MINI5280 tradition.

Yay, maps! I was going to ask for more specifics on the meeting spot. Never been to C&C, so wasn't totally sure which corner, etc. Looking forward to this!

Roughly what time is Yalla Yalla expected to conclude, and where? Trying to reconcile this with final farmers' market of the year in Longmontucky.

@mondogarage,

The answers to your two questions can't be answered but...

Ackording to Yelp, the Longmont Farmers Market hours are Saturday 8 am - 2 pm.

If this information is correct, you can participate and skip the prize presentation and get in on the final farmers market of the year.

There is the usual "winner must be present to claim prizes" clause, void where prohibited. But you will still have fun and have braging rights that you participated in Yalla Yalla 2013

I hope that little bit of information helps.

Robert

Yalla Yalla Up-date


This year's Yalla Yalla will take us to the Wild West, and as you may know, there were not many or any paved roads back then.

The selected route is all on paved roads, if you lose your way, you might end up on a dirt road so wonder carefully.

That's all.
