  6. I'm still coming, but stuck in horrible traffic in DC. Not sure if this is related to the marathon or not, but if so, they changed the roads that were supposed to be closed. It's taken us 30 minutes to 2 miles!!
  7. Usually we just meet there, unless people are co
  8. I will definitely need a couple of volunteers, but if you help, you can't participate, so I'm asking my non-MINI friends first. The starting point is likely going to be Wegman's in Sterling and the end point will likely be Union Jack's in Bal
  9. I'm pretty sure I saw Christina-JCW yesterday on Rt 28, just south of MoS. She was heading south and I was going north, but I'm pretty sure it was her. Not too many MINIs with red wheels! I saw a MY/B Clubman this afternoon on Wisconsin Ave. Their tag was "OXON" (I think...) I didn't wave, because I was a passenger in my friend's non-MINI loaner. Last Friday, I saw a Dark Silver/Black MCS with a DCMM sticker on Calvert St and Adams Mill. I was waiting for the bus, I think it was around 11am.
  10. Cricket is getting new wheels & tires. The wheels are the same ones Cameroon has and the tires will be Pirelli PZeros. I'm sticking with runflats, I don't mind them so much and I like having the piece of mind. I'm not sure what else I'm going to do. I might replace the boot stripes, they're not looking so great.
  11. Ok, since we're all on the same page about it being in Ashburn, that's where it's staying.
  12. I don't want anyone to be confused... the Coffee & MINIs is at the Caribou in Ashburn, not the one in Fairfax. Of course, if everyone would rather go to the one in Fairfax, that's fine with me! I just want everyone in the same place. I still

    <p></p> <div style="text-align:center;"> <p><strong>DC Metro MINIs Scavenger Hunt</strong></p> <p><strong>Sunday, May 23rd</strong></p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <div style="text-align:left;"> <p><strong>WHERE TO MEET:</strong> Sterling Wegmans parking lot (North-East corner)</p> <p><strong>WHEN:</strong> Sunday, May 23rd at 10am. It is in your best interest to be there on time, as that will allow you more time to find the items!</p> <p><strong>WHAT TO BRING:</strong> Full tank of gas, a navigator, <strong>a digital camera with a blank memory card, </strong>two-way radios could be helpful but are not required.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>How this will work: </strong>When you check in, you will receive a packet with the rules and the list of items/places you need to find. You will not be allowed to open this until 10am! </p> <p> </p> <p>Though not required, a navigator would be very helpful. You can have up to 4 people on your team. It's limited to 4 for safety reasons, you don't have 5 seatbelts in your MINI. </p> <p> </p> <p>Most of the things/places you need to find are in Northern Virginia and DC. There is no way you can find everything on the list, but it will likely be a long day of driving . </p> <p> </p> <p>You will need to turn in your items/pictures by 4pm. We will be meeting at <strong>Union Jacks Pub in Ballston Mall in Arlington VA. </strong>There is a parking garage attached to the mall that only charges $1. I will be at Union Jacks by 3:00pm should you want to return early. Food and drink will be available for purchase. </p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Cost: </strong>Free for members. $5 for non-members (to cover the costs of supplies/prizes). If even ONE member of your team is a member, it is free! </p> </div> <p></p> <p></p> </div> <p></p>

  19. MoS has asked for an approximate count of how many are coming this Saturday, so please RSVP. (Don't worry - you can still go if you don't RSVP). They just want to know how much food to order. :rock:
  20. Anyone is welcome to join us!! I'm sure we all need a break from winter. I am sorry
  21. Dave and I won't make this one. We will be headed to Ft. Lauderdale. Violet - I thought I heard Yolanda isn't there anymore.
  22. I'm so sorry! That's just awful. I wonder what was so important the other guy couldn't pay attention to the road? I'm glad you're ok and your baby will be as good as new soon!
  23. Don't worry, we will! The party will not be the weekend before, either. :top:
