Talking Col Crawford Mini Run today with over 20 Minis

Not that is what i call a Mini Run
We had 22 Minis (i think) in all. Started at Brookvale and went hooning out to Wisemans ferry and back.. Lobbied well with Mini2 leaflets so hopefully we will see a few more Sydney faces
One of the best parts was when we turned onto the Pacific Hwy in a formation of 10 long by 2 abreast anf headed up to Hornsby.. The road was full of Minis and everyone around noticed..
Here are a few pics...
These two are the 10x2 formation about to head onto the pacific hwy

Guys - that looks absolutely fan-bloody-tastic. Well done. I would have loved to not only see the faces of onlookers but hear all 22 roaring past.

Great to see more dealers organising days like this for their valued customers. They should all do things like this I reckon.

Col Crawford supplied a breakfast when we arrived and lunch at Wisemans Ferry... They were awesome and a big thank you goes to Josh, David and Steve for their support of the Mini culture

I prompted them along with constant visits, but to their credit they had thought of it before i got on the bandwagon.. I think my stories to them about the runs i did in QLD and Vic got them interested..
but then again, i am in their showroom chatting to them at least every fortnight (where is the works kit??)

my sales guy KNOWS about this site, and even about our meets!

He sent me an email asking if I had a good time the other Sunday, as he was heading for the showroom that morning along the M4 and saw us all at Eastern Creek!

Myabe I'll get in his ear about it...

I've dropped my salesguy at Alto Artarmon (Scott Butler) a quick email to see if there's any interest from there. I'm not sure if he's aware of the site.....

has anyone created a Sydney/NSW register?
