  3. It took almost two weeks to get my order. They definitely take their time.
  4. Cricket is being indecisive. :stupid:
  5. Haemish and I are registered for the afternoon session.
  6. I can't believe this is the last autocross of the year. Is anyone else going?
  7. RSVPs are OPEN!! Please RSVP here for the DRIVE only. There is a separate thread for the lunch, in order to get more accurate numbers.

  9. DC Metro MINIs 4th Annual MINIs Take the Beltway - LUNCH This year's MINIs Take the Beltway lunch will be held at: Kilroys Ravensworth Shopping Center 5250-A Port Royal Rd Springfield, VA 22151 All you can eat brunch-buffet, adults $15.99, children (4-11) $10.99. We will be arriving at approximately 11am. In order to have a more accurate head count, we have two separate RSVPs. Please RSVP here for the LUNCH ONLY. If you are also attending the drive, please see this thread.
  10. Clings are simply cost prohibitive. We would not be able to cover the costs. We are working on an alternative.
  11. We usually start pretty early, around 8:30am. We do the lap, then have lunch. Lunch is usually around 11:30am.
  12. RSVPs are now open!! :rock:
  13. Sunday, November 11
  14. As for the smoking thing- they are. Unless they have a separate ventilation system or something. We ARE in the non-smoking area, but you'll smell it if you come in through the front door. Jono- don't worry about a chair. We'll make sure you're comfortable.
  15. The annual meeting is THIS SATURDAY!! Please be sure your RSVPs are correct/up to date. This meeting is open to paid members only. If you have a couples membership, please be sure to indicate if both of you are coming.
  16. Thanks everyone!! I'm glad everyone had a good time. I was happy to learn they DID have pumpkins today, even though I didn't get one. I did almost end up with a kitten, though. Next year, the Great Kitten Run!
  17. I just checked the "What's Picking" page at Great Country Farms. Not pumpkins. Honey crisp apples can be picked. I'm not changing the name of the run to the Great Apple Run, though.
  18. When I planned this run the first time, I did a lot of turning around. There's a tons of gravel roads out this way. Don't worry - this run is GRAVEL FREE! (Unless you count the parking lot at the Farm or if you go to the winery.) I see no reason to change the date or cancel. Unless the forecast changes drastically, we're on! Bees... not again. I don't want a repeat of last weekend. :willy::willy::willy::willy:
  19. Maybe I should rename it the Lobster Run.
  20. We have the room reserved from 1:30pm - 4:30pm. We will have the buffet from 1:30pm-2:30pm. I expect the meeting to go until pretty close to 4:30pm.
  21. I was just checking out Great Country Farm's website and noticed this weekend is the Cider Festival. It sounds fun, but they charge a little more when there's a festival (which seems to be every weekend). The updated admissions fees are: $12/adult $10/child (3-10) I also noticed this: Children 2 years and under, Active Duty and Retired Military ID card holders, CSA members and Fan of the Farm Season Pass holders, are free of charge.
  22. Here's the route sheet. Based on Nick's Weather Service prediction, it looks like the date will remain Sunday. :top: Great Pumpkin Run.xls Great Pumpkin Run.xls
  23. I'm planning on pd'ing my winter wheels black. They're silver now. I like them, but it's tough to keep them clean in the winter.
  24. Your passenger was fine. However, there was a reason I insisted on the harnesses! It was a little challenging to use the radio, hold the route sheet and talk loud enough that I could be heard over the tires and engine. Thank you for putting the run together! It was a lot of fun! That's awful!! That is only the second time I've heard of anything like that happening at a MINI event. The other event was the 2nd MINIs Take the Beltway. I think it's interesting that both times something like this happened, it was at events where the dealer sent out the invitations. I've never heard of it happening at a club (any club) sponsored event. I really do hope it was just mistakenly picked up or misplaced. It's just not right to take stuff that isn't yours! :banghead:
