United-Kingdom Mar 2nd - Middx MINI's 2nd fun run (& anyone else who's interested!)

Our first meet n greet for Middlesex MINI's was so much fun that we agreed to go for the 1st Sunday of each month for future runs.

The next one therefore, will be on Sunday March 2nd leaving the Master Brewer on the A40 in Hillingdon at 10.00am again taking in A, B and single track roads in Middx, Bucks and Berks. Should last about about 2-2.5 hours and then finish with some social chitchat over a drink.

We could either do the same/similar route to the first run or, if someone is feeling adventurous, feel free to map out another.

Although this event is aimed at Middx/W London MINI's all are welcome - Bad Manners came all the way from deepest Surrey!

If you're interested in joining in the fun next time please let your intentions be known here.

I'm meant to be going to the Kent MINI Meet the day before this one. As long as I'm not too tired from that, I should still be up for this one too.

Apologies,

Looks like I won't be able to attend the next two runs

A combination of family commitments, and the need to keep the mileage as low as poss. for the next few months, mean's it's highly unlikely I’ll be on the next few runs.
I could probably sweet talk my way around the family bit, but that doesn't help with the mileage, so looks like i'll see you in a few months.

Have fun

Mick

Locals roll call

So far for the 2nd run we have:

Martin L
Bad Manners - probably very weary/shagged out
Mark Tifosi
Stu D/Laura
Anand
Oh - and me!

No go's

Mickey - other commitments
Mad Tart (on hols)

I'll contact Stephen Cy Wong again and see if he's up for it.

This is still a comfortable number not to need a route for. We'll see how things go - if the numbers go up to maybe 10ish cars then I'll type up the route for the slow ones!

Mark me down for this please as it's about time I got Psycho covered in filth again. We should also have a drink to mark the departure of the lovely Sarah from Milcars.

You can put me down for this one, as long as I'm back home by 2pm to watch Man U put the boot in on Liverpool!

I have a cunning plan!

Hmmm, got the kids for the day so might take them for a "drive" Not sure what time I'm picking them up though so may have to join you mid-route if I do come along.

Sham - can you pm/email me the approx route so I can see if it's possible to meet you guys midway - I'd be coming from Aylesbury direction ?

Cheers
Bob
