The final pre-run to Purgatory Chasm has been completed. I think you will
all enjoy the ride up and back. It has some nice twisties and beautiful
scenery.

Just a few things:

If you have not confirmed your attendance for this event please contact
me. If you have expressed interest in this event please contact me again
to confirm. I would like to have an exact number of MINIs for Saturday.

This is who I have as coming so far:
Crystal Goodwin
Gary Costello
Mike + Amy Thombs
Sarah Borque
Jay Pineirho
Peter + Audra Ames
Bob + Sonya Hoffman
Linda + Calvin Pardee
Rich + Stef Hall
and from MINI2.com
jwardell
bakerjc

Things you might want to bring:

You
Your MINI
Bug Spray
Beverages
Food (option: We will be stopping at a deli on the way up)
Chairs (there are picnic tables)
Camera
2 Way Radios (makes the ride up a bit more fun if we can all talk)


I look forward to seeing everyone on Saturday.

There's a good chance I'll be meeting you there at the Chasm. There are a couple of other MA people that have expressed interest, I'll see if I can get the word to them.

Thumbs up Better late than never...

Hey, I'm on a mission... It looks like I'll be there with my 2 kids - always helps to have a candy store, ice cream, swimming pool, etc. somewhere along the way.

We'll try to be there on time at Famous Pizza - any coffee, breakfast, bathrooms, etc. available right there at 10:00? We'll probably stay a while at Purgatory when we get there & head back North to Worcester - one-way backtracking is enough...

No to all. The pizza place does not open til 11:00. You should stop before you get there. If you are coming from 295 you will pass a Dunkin' Donuts with bathrooms.

Hey Sidways you got the second pic in large format? I have never seen my MINI from behind and would love a copy. I would like to do this run but ICE Cream first.

My pics have been posted.

you can check them out here: www.oceanstatemini.com/gallery/purgatory04




We had 15 MINIs and 2 dogs from the start and 3 showed up at the chasm... not a bad day! Stef and I had a great time. I was shocked when I pulled into the lot and saw that many MINIs. I hope you all enjoyed the ride up and back.

I want to thank everyone for coming and I hope to see you all at future events.


Thanks so much!

Rich
