Thank you all for coming to the Cape

Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy -like. Usually it takes a boston terrier kiss or lots of horsepower and torque to make me feel this way. The house guests were well behaved and tolerated close quarters very nicely. Thanks for being there.
We had a fun Sunday too with a zippy ride to Peabody, especially on RT. 1 where three of us threaded the needle more in 15 minutes than I would do in 1 year

John, for future reference: The Tobin Bridge is not the fast way home to Stoddard. Of course you know that by now.

For future reference: neither is 195 to 95

Thanks to Steve, Bill, Libby, and everyone for a great day!

I've located that Old Country Rd and marked it in my brain to visit next time when I am without passengers. Sorry I could not stay longer that the BBQ. I actually have all my photos posted already (because there's not that many), and a writeup on my website.

Wow, just been reading the BABE rally website and it sounds awesome!!

I wonder if overseas teams are welcome for next year?

Blame NUVI, not me!

Y'all have to read this two page pictorial over at the BABE forums. From skank to princess car.

I don't think they needed to call me a skank, that was a bit harsh

There is a Brit team and an Irish team here this year. I got all the road maps for the Brit team and will hand them over Wed. night. The Irish guys arrived in Raleigh, North Carolina Saturday and have been furiously working on their car.
The guy who started the Banger Rallys is from the UK and is a main organizer of the BABE.

OK...with help and guidance from The Codfather I have finally overcome my performance anxiety and have decided to venture into the MINI2 forums. Be gentle with me it is my first time. I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who came to Lucky's Big Day on SAturday. We hope you had as much fun as we did. I'm sorry that I didn't contact Guinness Book of Records for Most Minis in a cul de sac! Thank you all again!!
Libby and Bill
