Although I invited the new guy from work ('cause he's so new to the area) I kind of agree with Glenn on keeping our rides to MINIs. We post on NAM because we all have and love MINIs. I don't mind an occasional visitor, but I certainly don't want to see our fun runs turn into competitions with other brands.

As for tomorrow, if there are a lot of "other" cars, we can always split the group up - it seems like there will be an abundance of attendees, so we may very well be able to (and want to) subdivide.

Glenn, please do come!

Is this run still going on? Or did everyone choose to go to NorCal's run today? Please let me know... Thanks!

I'm still planning on going. With two passengers and maybe a dog too!


Where/when is the ending point for this run? I hope it's a nice pub or something!

Me and my girl will be there!

I wouldn't worry about competition. I ran with 4 Subarus and had a blast. It's about enthusiasm for driving..... I just put some different struts on my Mini. If I hadn't gotten the car close to level, I would have showed in my Mustang! But I hope I have the dampeners set close to something workable, or it's gonna be a long ride.

Yes! What a blast! Thanks Nikki for setting this up. Kudos to the goldcountry crew for coming all the way out. I think we gave all the people stuck on 92W a reason to smile when we motored by.

Nikki, at least you got your pix off of your camera already. I'm still working on that!


Thanks all for a nice run, and for putting up with us old folks. I'll post some pix, eventually...

No harm, no foul!
If my car had the ***** that yours does... I'd probably be showin' off too!

Thanks for the pics, Rob!

Who is the guy with the Blue MINI with stuffed toys who talked to Bass with the Black STi, about them coming along on the drive?

Something about the rules of this site??

I don't think we objected to you guys coming along when we did that first Skyline drive now did we?

Best Regards,

David
