  1. Driving down 395 South with the top down rocking out and annoyed that the stupid Audi in front of me didn't know that you should merge at speed and not 40mph when I hear a tooot tooot It's a red Countryman flying by Hi Michael :itsme: Got a Waze message right after Made my night as I was on the verge of grumpy!!!!!
  2. They were awesome!!!
  3. Alex, did you see the two MINIs on 211 Saturday? They waved like crazy and honked. Some they and is were being rather spirited I barely saw them but one was a Countryman and one was red.
  4. :security:
  5. A character???!!! Maybe I shouldn't have threatened your knee caps... I'm always sad when we all leave each other too.
  6. RSVP's open Here's a link showing the location. We are not really picnicking in the bathroom but it's very near the shelter and identified on Google maps https://www.google.com/maps/search/Bluemont+park+public+bathroom,+arlington+VA/@38.8673068,-77.1321756,18z/data=!4m5!2m4!3m3!1sBluemont+park+public+bathroom,+arlington+VA!2sN+Bluemont+Dr,+Arlington,+VA+22203!3s0x89b7b4156144fe71:0xd3887c8e59f85b4d
  7. That was a blast!!!! I had a lot of fun with all of you. Thanks for leading Will, it was a great little run. Thanks to everyone for humoring me on Tigger's big milestone!!! There were a few technical difficulties when we stopped at 99,985 to check the set up and my wireless remote stopped working. Luckily the cord was long enough on the remote so I was able to use that. But it freaked out and was taking pics without me hitting the button. I got that to stop and then all was well for capturing 100K safely.
  8. I will be careful Craig, that's why I set it up to be totally wireless. With just over 100 miles left I won't be on 66 and should be on Skyline. When we get close I'm going to get on the walkie talkie and ask to pull into a scenic vista where I can drive in circles to get to it
  9. I have one
  10. I'm ready for the run I have my camera set up on shutter priority and 1/500th of a second so if there are vibrations I won't have any issues with camera shake. Tested the wireless remote mounted the tripod in the back (Mark helped with that so it's secure) Set the tripod head so that it sees the odometer, using a 100mm lens so that it is magnified a bit. Put a fresh battery and empty memory cards I think I'm ready!!! Also packed walkie talkies
  11. We're jumping in at Cleveland too, getting out in Bethlehem
  12. I can, I'll be fine. Especially since they cleared up the infected stitches
  13. Lots of love and maintenance and they make it
  14. I don't think that's near me
  15. If it's raining I'll move the car but at that time if the weather is nice I'll just walk the half a mile. Sorry you can't join us. Where do you work? I'm at 14th and L NW
  16. Am I counting right that there will be 4 of us? Wellston Sneaky Baron MINI in Black Tigger
  17. Some of you may know Mike McGill from the Dragon, he drives an R52 in Hot Orange and has a cabin across the street from Laura and Katie. Well he's in training in DC next week and we're meeting for dinner. If anyone wants to join us you're welcome to. Tues July 15 at 6:00 District Chophouse 509 7th St NW, Washington, DC 20004 I have no idea about parking I'm going to walk from my office. It's always fun to see our out of town MINI friends
  18. But aren't you the boss?
  19. I agree!!! It's so exciting This will be sub named the Tiger 100k run :dancing2:
  20. I just realized something, there's a VERY good chance that Tigger will hit 100K miles on this run. He's got about 200 to go. I'm putting the tripod in the back and mounting the camera with the wireless remote so that I can take the picture and not miss it.
  21. Yay

  23. I found the address 330 E. Criser Rd, Front Royal, VA 22630
