No, it attracts bears!

Thanks everyone! Craig loaned me his.

I'd like to borrow a Go Pro for MTTS, specifically to record the lap around the Indianapolis Speedway. I'll be gone for over a week, so you'd need to be ok with me having it for that long. (Visiting my parents after MTTS in Indy). I'd be happy to make you cookies, wash your MINI, etc in exchange. Obviously if something happened to it, I'd replace it. Thanks!! :motor:

Work

Most likely! :itsme:

I just got back from Costco - we have a TON of food for tomorrow. So, even if the weather is iffy, please come out. As you can see from the pictures, the shelter is huge. If there are any new members or renewing members who are waiting on badges and w

I've gotten 3 waves in less than 24 hours! The first was from a BRG/silver clubman in Alexandria. The second was a BRG/black as I was getting on Rock Creek near the Watergate. This morning, a dark silver/white in Pentagon City retuned my wave!

Update! There WILL be a pre-picnic run! Meet at the Wegmans in Sterling at 10am for a 10:30am departure. The route is approximately 1.5 hours. If you are not a member of DCMM, you will need to sign a waiver to participate in the run. I have attached Pre-Picnic Run.doc Pre-Picnic Run.doc

Here are some pictures of the picnic site: This is our shelter. Lots of room! http://lh6.ggpht.com/_PEFcJS6fKQU/TDSLxhTn1nI/AAAAAAAABHQ/6p0Ha_u61h

Nope, we're just taking over! I saw 5 or 6 on Rock Creek Parkway a few days ago. (None of them waved). :motor:

I posted the details.

I had a great time yesterday!! Thanks, Chris, Steve, Bill and Rab! I think I only took two or three pictures, it's too hard to take pictures and drive.

Is anyone who's driving up from DC/VA want to meet and head up together? :motor:

That's really funny!! It could be worse, you could have dreams that the MINI gets wrecked or otherwise dies, like I do.

I tagged a Horizon Blue/Black MCS at the Target on Rt 50 in Falls Church this afternoon. It had dealer plates from Maryland and a MINI of Annapolis license plate frame.

I signed up to see A-Team and Iron Man 2. I checked the theater's website last night for this exact reason. There

I get Cricket's oil changed every 5000 miles. I take her to Mach V, it's around $85, which is much better than what the dealer charges. I'm not aware of any problems directly caused by only changing the oil when MINI tells you to (that doesn't mean there haven't been any), but I just can't bring myself to wait that long.

I've uploaded most of the photos and the clue sheet. However, since this forum is so busy with events lately, I posted them in the Clubhouse. I don't want anyone's event to get buried!

I had a very spirited run last night around 11:30 on Rock Creek Parkway with a BRG/W Cooper. When we got to Calvert, I turned right and the other MINI turned left. When I looked over, she waved! :wavey: I saw a ton of MINIs today. None of them waved back, though. However, I wasn't driving Cricket, so maybe that was why? :stupid: If you see someone in a Zipcar waving frantically at you, wave back, it's probably me. :motor:

Thanks to everyone who participated yesterday!! I'm glad everyone had a good time. That makes all the work worth it! Thanks to Ali, Katie and Craig for helping, too! I could NOT have done this alone. I plan to post the pictures soon, hopefu

It's not crucial, but if you have a clipboard it would be helpful to bring it so you have something solid to write on.

One other things... You ARE allowed to use iphones/google and GPS, since I have no way to enforce not using them. So, if you have them, bring them.

Everyone is welcome at Union Jack's, even if you don't participate in the Scavenger Hunt. I'm planning on being there by 3pm, so feel free to stop by. *Please do NOT RSVP is you're only coming to UJ's.

Yay!! Congratulations!
