Thumbs up One More MINI Merging Midstream

Have to continue the family tradition of being difficult/lazy...

It's just the guys this year (son Justin & myself) & we'll attempt to join the caravan en route again. If I'm interpreting my YC/A51 directions from '05 correctly, y'all will be passing by Mr. Mikes Mobil at precisely 12:18 this year. By then, we'll get all gassed up & buy something for lunch. Let's see, revs @ 3,000, pop clutch, launch into caravan of MINIs...

Anyway, it would be cool if someone could call my cell (I'll return via PM/eMail) when you're in the general vicinity of Stoddard & as long as nobody gets run over by a renegade FedEx truck...

Eek - almost forgot - gotta have one of those ovals @ $10 cheap...

One more thing - The Golden Pond route from A51 to the T&C looks like the one.
Always great to have more options on our 4th MoT!

Now officially T-9 days & counting

Later,
The other Dan

How can you be in two places at once, when you're not anywhere at all ?

Theo,

Thank you to you and all your helpers...

Once again, Lois & I join you en route and will tag along Dan and Justin (Sideways) at Mr Mikes in Stoddard.

Absolutely, one of the ovals please!

The cell coverage at Mr Mikes can be spotty. If you want to call us at our house when you depart YC or soon thereafterwards we can relay info to Dan and others that might be standing by at Mr. Mikes. Our drive to Mr Mikes is only 15 minutes. To exchange numbers, please PM or email.

Cheers,

Ric

Euro-Ovals



Just a reminder that a limited number of the YC/A51 Euro-Ovals are available for purchase. I will bring them with me and distribute them during the YC/A51 Caravan. However, it would be best for those who are interested in purchasing the ovals to post to this thread to reserve one; already 13 of the 25 available are spoken for.

Also, the ovals are printed on MAGNETIC material that will adhere to your boot and be easily removable.

My total cost (personal -- not MOT -financed) was $140 (inc shipping) for 25. That's a cost of $5.60 each. So, I'd like to get at least that amount for them. However, any amount over that will go directly to Rosie's place and...if I sell ALL the ovals, I'll kick in an additional $50 to Rosie's Place!

The going rate seems to be a $10 donation for each oval...but all I ask is to cover my $5.60 cost with your generosity determining the difference.

Thanks!

Theo

Nice idea, Theo. Evan and I will take one for Stryk2. Looks like we'll be at A51 w/ the Cape Cod MINIs group
Last year I left the house when the CCM's group was just over the Sagamore bridge. Somehow we got to A51 about 30 minutes ahead of them
