Sunday Feb 12-

Just checked and it looks like we will have at least 40 cars for Sunday. Great turnout! MOASF will have 10 from their group. REME has 27 signed up and Nor Cal has about 25. Peter was kind enough to check and figure all the duplicates. Bottom line is 40+ cars for Sunday. Bring your cameras. Should be a beautiful, warm, clear day.

I sent a message to the SF Chronicle and Santa Rosa Press Democrat letting them know and asking if the want to cover this event.

Wow! 40+ MINI's/Mini's in one place! Not only are we bringing our cameras, but also the camcorder!
I wonder if there will be a Moke there? That would be cool!

 

I'll be at the Livermore rendezvous point (Robertson Park parking lot on South Livermore Ave at ~9:30)

 

Looks like we need to "represent!" I'm in!
I'll join at Livermore as well.

 

I'll be there too! Not sure if we're meeting in Concord or Livermore yet.

 

Girlfriend and I plan on making this one too. Went on last years run.

 

Looks like I'll be going solo on this trip. Everyone else has to work. Geez, I hope I don't get lost !
Anybody going from the Santa Cruz area?

This url does not work. It just brings the user to the Enterprise sign-up.

Your post on the 'Mini Talk' board seems like the right url BUT it says:

'you have reached the 3 download limit'.

Mucho Problemo Senor...

Looks like everyone had a great time. I'm sorry I couldn't make it on this trip. I've been way too busy with work! Yes, the dreaded work. Love the pics though and I am looking forward to the write up in MC2...

 

Do you have the cream-colored Mini? My wife saw that and said:
"Can we buy another Mini? I like that off-white one."
Wow! I might have approval for another toy! Thanks to your awesome car.

It was a good day for photos. The hills were green and the skies were expressive. BTW, I use a Canon G6 camera with 420EX flash. I use photoshop liberally and I get a lot of tips from one of my company's sites: http://photographyreview.com
