I think floyd will be babysitting dogs but I think I'll be adventurous and join the group on my own (I'm not scared...except for snow and sleet!)

I know this was something quite a few folks wanted to participate in last year, unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate. Seabiscuit was the one handling those plans (R/C events) last year...not sure if M2C2 was going to include that this year or not. You'll need to take that up with jabell2r, BLUCOOPR, or lilruffcat. I'm sure Seabiscuit would help out, but he'll need to know soon...like, yesterday.

I would say we are dang friendly, but I am biased.

If you own a MINI, you're part of the family!!

I am going to post here too...
Any idea of the festivities and what time they will start?
I need to make sure to get my husband off work early enough on Friday to make it up there before anything starts...

Saturday Mountain Drive

My name is Frank Turner. I am a "local", and I have volunteered to lead a mountain drive Saturday. A map and turn-by-turn directions are attached. We will leave from the winery tour (about 10:30). Here are a few details:
  • We will be focusing on the great roads west of Helen; basically going up mountains and down the other side. The route direction is meant to utilize 2-lane uphills where available to avoid traffic impediments.
  • This will be a "spirited" drive, but with plenty of stops to gather up those desiring a slower pace, or getting caught up in traffic. Those apex animals desiring a faster pace may feel free to carry on without sticking with the group.
  • To ensure no one gets lost, or that breakdowns don't get left behind, please employ the buddy system by keeping an eye on the mini behind you. If necessary, stop briefly at turns to make sure they see where to go.
  • Come with a full tank of gas. This is Deliverance country.
  • Bring some cash for drinks/snacks and parking at Vogel Park.
  • In many places, gravel used for the recent ice storms will be present, or pushed out to the edge of the road, and most places have no guardrails. Nuff said.
  • I will have extra maps and write-ups at the hotel and the winery.
  • To find me, look for the Mello Yello Clubman.
  • For info before the drive, call 770-891-7635.
