Added some pics and descriptions of the destinations!

Good idea! Definitely mention it to John and I will post it on the meetup.

Ali got you covered and posted the event on Facebook. I'll give it a few days and if we still don't have the minimum, we can send out an email blast to try to reach a few others. We just sent one out last night otherwise we could do it now.

Interesting!

Is this something I should consider with 23k miles on a Gen 3?

That is pretty amazing.. what is the story with the GP's anyway? Are they the ultimate MINI?

Sounds good! Got a meet and greet coming up if that works, otherwise just let me know.

Do you get sound from anything else on your phone, aside from phone calls? The reason I ask is that my car is the same way and it turns out you have to have MINI Connected or Enhanced Bluetooth to pair your phone for media purposes through Bluetooth, otherwise you just get phone calls. I ended up buying a Harmon Kardon bluetooth hub that plugs into the Aux port and run all my media through there. I also believe the audio is superior in my car with this method. I've paired my phone for media in loaners and the audio isn't as strong. The negative here is that if you have the full screen in your dash, you don't get album art on that screen, only on your phone's screen and you cannot control the media from your steering wheel controls aside from volume.

Event Title: Motoring to Magnolia's at the Mill Event Date: 05/26/2018 11:00 AM to 05/26/2018 03:00 PM Event Address: 21826 Pacific Blvd, Sterling, VA 20166 Update: Our first stop is changing! We will have lunch at Magnolia's at the Mill (West End doesn't do lunch /forehead) Following the Meet and Greet, we will enjoy a relaxed drive through Western Loudoun to have lunch at the Magnolia's at the Mill in Purcellville, VA. After lunch, some tours of local wineries and breweries will be available to join! Notable stops include Dragon Hops Brewing, Otium Cellars, and Bluemont Vineyard. Magnolia's at the Mill Located in the historic town of Purcellville, Magnolias at the Mill is renowned for its cuisine and service. Housed in a magnificently restored 1905 grain mill, Magnolias' simple clapboard siding and exposed beams give the restaurant a cozy ambience while the wheels and pulleys still suspended from the roof speak of its hard-working history. Dragon Hops Brewing A relatively new brewer in the area, they have only been open since early May. Be among the first to try them out! They grow their own hops locally in Loudoun County Otium Cellars Otium Cellars is a boutique winery located just outside of the picturesque town of Purcellville in Northern Virginia. With its roots in old Franconian tradition, Otium produces quality wines from one of the best Western Loudoun County terroirs. Quaint with a German flare, owner Dr. Gerhard Bauer has brought a sense of home to Loudoun County. Winemakers Ben Renshaw and Max Bauer create unique, complex wines with Austrian and German varieties such as Grüner Veltliner, Grauburgunder (German Pinot Gris), Blaufränkisch, Dornfelder, and Zweigelt. Other varieties you may find in the tasting room include Chardonnay, Merlot, Malbec, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Bluemont Vineyard You can see all the way to Reston from the tasting room deck.. amazing view, not to be missed! Bluemont Vineyard was established in 2007 when the first grape vines came into full production. We now grow over 7 varietals of grapes including Viognier, Norton and Cab Franc, and are on the leading edge of bringing Petit Manseng and Albarino to Virginia Wine Lovers visiting the growing number of wineries in the area. As a small-run Virginia winery, an average of 6500 carefully crafted cases of wine are produced each year. We invite you to join us in the love of this land we steward and to discover a broad spectrum of wines produced from its terroir guided by the skill, enthusiasm and artistry of the team creating each unique vintage.

I would love to see us do some "club run" sign ups for us to hang out together a little more next year. It was difficult to pull things together off the cuff because electronic communications was extremely limited unless you were sitting in Fontana waiting by your radio. =) I will be working on that for next year.

Wednesday for me.. sorry. Have a great time though.. weather looks good!

Yeah, we are going to end up going down Wednesday morning, leaving at 2AM. We got too excited and didn't want to miss a day of the event.

How long does this take per person? Since we are referring to this as an "event" are we thinking they are going to do 15 cars in a day or will they work to schedule individuals over a period of time?

Shirts look great @CHILLIN! Thanks for doing the work to arrange for these for our club!

I don't think he does Nope. Standard S.

Yeah, wish I could but we have conflicting plans.

Wow! Nice!
