Happy Thanksgiving! I'm looking forward to a meal compliments of Boston Market. Going to be up to 65 today. Perfect day to apply Aquapel and fiddle with some accessories, or I could spend quality time with the family.

Nice mods! I wouldn't get the engine damper though because I like engine yo-yo. Just a matter of preference . Runs coming up soon so stay tuned...

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

I think that a run should coordinated to get up there. It could be the "fall run" that hasn't happened yet Take the long way blah blah blah.

Jonathan, being from around there, do you have any ideas for routes?

Yes, sort of - but that would overshoot where I am. I'm very close to NYC (50 miles or less). What I could suggest is going up from NYC through Danbury, and then cutting down through CT Rt. 58 (Black Rock Turnpike) to Fairfield.

Paul, you and I can talk about it further... no worries... although I am not the best person to lead a pack of MINIs. If it's on a Sunday, it really isn't far at all! Let's see, how shall we see what day works best for most... "Fall run" could work, but don't expect too much in terms of foliage. Speaking of foliage, there are still trees, this late in the season, that have the fall colours.. which is amazing!

For those of you who don't know Pepe's (Frank J. Pepe Pizza Napoletana), it's different, and in a class all by itself. They bake the pizza in a coal-fired oven, similar to the type of oven they used in Italy to make the first pizza. Additionally, Pepe's was recently featured on Travel Channel's 10 Best. The episode re-ran within the past week on Travel Channel!

paul,

Whats up man!

Either you and the MINY crew should come up for a run or The HVMINI crew will come down your way. Let's get something together before the weather goes south.

I think going up your way would be a better bet. You have the roads. We have tourist attractions and traffic. If you know another route, or maybe a longer verson of the last one, that would be awesome. Maybe work a lunch in there somewhere and we'd be golden

My current situation has afforded me more than enough free time, so my dates are pretty open...

Maybe this time I'll finally remember all the different components I need for the vacucam I always forget something

That sounds exciting...but I gotta agree with someone who had this thought a while ago on this thread (too many pages to look back) but a SUPER late night run down Broadway when no one is really around would be wicked awesome...an after party would be the icing on the cake
If i wasn't leaving the country in a month I'd help plan it....
