  1. 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.
  2. 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
  3. I have one
  4. 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
  5. We're jumping in at Cleveland too, getting out in Bethlehem
  6. I can, I'll be fine. Especially since they cleared up the infected stitches
  7. Lots of love and maintenance and they make it
  8. I don't think that's near me
  9. 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
  10. Am I counting right that there will be 4 of us? Wellston Sneaky Baron MINI in Black Tigger
  11. 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
  12. But aren't you the boss?
  13. I agree!!! It's so exciting This will be sub named the Tiger 100k run :dancing2:
  14. 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.
  15. Yay
  16. Beat the crowds!
  17. I found the address 330 E. Criser Rd, Front Royal, VA 22630
  18. Where and what time do you want to meet?
  19. We try to do them fairly regularly, picking a place is always a challenge and anyone can set up a dinner or an event. Every time Mark and I go out I always look around and wonder if it will work for a club dinner :eating:
  20. I'm so glad it was a hit. Mark and I like the patio and I also thought the name of the restaurant was fitting for a car club :top:
  21. Brussel sprouts and bacon yummy!
  22. thanks :top:
  23. I'll represent the orange :top:
  24. That sounds fun and I have no plans right now
