Hi MiniSkim,
Well you just answered my question from you other post. Toms River, Mrs. Mr. Jim's mom lives there so that is not far from us in Aberdeen. We are try to get together with ffisher1 for a run down to Cape May either next Sunday or the weekend after just to get out and motor and hit the Ugly Mug for some stuffed hot peppers and a few pints.
Again welcome.

I hope i can hook up with some of you guys. Weekends are usually bad for me since I always work. But the days are open as I work at night. So if there's any time you are passing Toms River maybe I can join at least part of the time before work. The big run on the 28th starting in Cheesquake rest area might be possible for me if anyone is going. That one is listed on the other site for Jersey Mini's which I can't think of right now but I know there's links to it here somewhere. Safe Motoring.

I live in Bayonne NJ (Hudson County) but frequent Little Egg Harbor (Ocean County) almost every weekend, as I have family and friends down there. Lets set up an IBSP meet or something soon! How about a Mini Mini-meet in Toms River or something?

Or an Atlantic City meet... we can go to the top level of Borgata's parking lot and take photos of the Mini's gathered up there.

Speaking of, I was just there on Thursday and they still have the Swarovski crystal-covered Mini inside the Borgata, been on display there all summer...

Congrats!
Friday night at the Jackson outlet mall there is a car show and we are getting a group together to go. Why not bring your ride and stop on by. It runs from 6:00-9:00. The location is Rt 537 just north of Great Adventure.

Jeff, it kinda smells like we got enough people on the Burlington-Camden-Gloucester county corridor to do a Mini run in the central Cherry Hill area?? (Granted, I'm 2 counties further south of there, but I'd drive up.)

Although not sure exactly where we could motor, since sitting in bumper-to-bumper traffic on Rte. 70 would not be much fun for anyone.

NEMini does a run thru the Pine Barrens a couple times a year. Starts at the LL Bean in Marlton.

One of my personal favorite drives (likely because I'm a brider & not so much for the roads) is to head south out of Gloucester County along the river, stopping at various spots on the river & bay until I get to Turkey Point in Cumberland County & then head back north.

Actually the Bi-Valve area probably would be a nice ride, and no traffic down there to speak of.

Where the heck is Turkey Point? I've lived in Cumb Co for 7 years and never heard of it??

I'm def down for the next Pine run outta Marlton. Any idea when that'll be?

Not sure when the next Pine run is. NEMini runs it.

...And so now there is another MINI in So. Jersey, Gloucester County. Will take delivery this Saturday. I have been following your threads re:driving tour of South Jersey. The nube would like to suggest Bellplane and Parvin State Park area. Back roads are winding and twisting...just waht the mini was built for. Look forward to getting involved

Add another Gloucester County Mini to the list. I should be taking delivery of my DS/B MCS tomorrow. I will be keeping an eye out for the other Mini's in the area.

Damn. With these many MINI's in Gloucester County, I'm either going to have to move or buy something different! A MINI in Gloucester County is becoming as common as a chant of E A G L E S in any bar in Philly on a fall Sunday afternoon.

Wow! Looks like it's not so lonely in SJ anymore! Welcome aboard everybody!

And yeah, Belleplain & Parvins would probably work just fine...

...It's wonderful. I just got home from picking up my MCS from Otto's Mini. I have been cruising around since 4:30pm. It is wonderful. By far the very best.

Just an idea, but what about a "Jersey Devil Run" in October? Mostly in October since I will be back in the area mid-late October. Just a thought.

I got mine from Otto's too...

That October run sounds like fun, and should be cool enough for perfect windows-down motoring... Though I've never been on a run so no idea how they get organized...
