[pincity]

MudBud,

OK I know I'm new but?

Route 95 South to Exit 1.
Bear Right onto Route 3 South.
Turn Left onto Route 78, follow to lite.
Take Left onto Route 1 North.

I may have to move the starting place more to follow.

Thanks,
PinCity

PIN, MINI goodies......with this being your first attempt at scheduling don't forget the T-shirts you are supposed to buy and distribute for all attendees. Isn't that right GMINI?

Starting at 1000 will be good as well.

See ya all soon!!!!

Oh yeah. T-shirts are an absolute must. I have at least seven from previous meets, and i'm still conjuring up the design for my next meet.

[pincity]

I don't have the timeeeeee. Can I get a free pass since it is my first one?

I am working on some cool keychains, for a nominal fee of course.

[MudBud]

GMINI, what do you think...someone asking for a free pass? hmmmmm

Thanks for the directions, I take it that Exit 1 is just as you enter RI from Mass. How far from the highway is it? 30 minutes?

If you change let me know as well.

GMINI and PIN...are you 2 going to the British Invasion in Stowe in Sept?

[GMINI]

I will if we don't manage to really get this LI meet going. Stowe is mighty far away. Are you planning to book a motel? MINI owners shouldn't stay in hotels. MOTELS!!!!

Yeah, Mud, what up with Limerock. Are you going? I'll definitely be there monday.

[MudBud]

Ok, where is limerock? I know its in Conn. but approx. where. I am approx. 2.5 hours to Hartford and about 3.5 hours to Danbury....thats about all I know. It may be a possibility for a Monday drive, however with everyone leaving the states of Maine and NH it may be difficult.

Yes, I am in a Motel....a MINI MOTEL. Its about a 2.5 hour drive for me to Stowe. We are leaving Friday night and have 3 runs planned....2 on Saturday and 1 on Sunday as we leave.

[GMINI]

Limerock, CT is in the NW corner next to Lakeville, CT. It's got an easy website to find (sorry) and directions should be a piece of cake. But oooo, forgot you were in ME!!!

[jacobsen1]

I will try to make it... it looks good right now... I don't know if I will drive to Westerly to start or not though as I live in Newport...

Also we should think about doing some F!boston meets.. Drive a MINI got cart type car then drive a go cart... that place rules... www.f1boston.com for those that don't know...

And I thought that was a great idea before the exclamation mark became a 1 in the URL...

Imagine a ton of foreign MINIs wipping through downtown boston with middle fingers jutting out their windows.

I mean i LIKE boston and all - just an image that popped into my head

Of course we let snid into MOT with The Marshmallow but those were extenuating circumstances indeed.

Hmmm, of course it could be interesting to have a MINI vs. VW event.

well thats unfair.. other people like spirited driving too.. not right to exclude them.

pure? give me a break.. i dont understand why everyone here is so against volkswagens... looks like i might not make it to this meet.

Ooops! Sorry, I forgot to add the requisite and and the disclaimer
"insert sense of humor here".

If you want to allow vws, subarus, mitsubishis, hondas, fords, chevrolets, buicks to your MINI rallies and events please do so. It would be mighty nice of you all.
nomonsters, Please don't let my opinion that MINI events should be for MINIs keep you from attending a MINI event.

[GMINI]

Really NoMo. What would a RI meet be without you?

Cruise to Newport roughly 40 minutes, do Ten Mile Drive, picnic and Kite flying optional. Family type event, please no reckless driving.

Being the first event I think we should go MINI only, sorry vdubs. I am open to popular opinion.

it wasn't just specifically your comment that i was talking about capecodmini, it was this one. i'm not even sure if they want to come but saying they're not allowed in the first place is not right. i'd rather go driving around with them than with all of you if that is gonna be the attitude.
if i go someone else will be driving my car.. wait is that allowed? or is it purely who owns the car too?

[GMINI]

"I am open to popular opinion."

That's us, folks. VW's or no VW's. I say anything goes except beetles...

NoMo. Will you be driving your own car if the VWs aren't there? How's that going to work?
