SneakyBaron Posted September 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 I won't know for sure till tomorrow, but there's a slight chance I'll need to ride along with someone. My husband Mark's MINI Max is in for repairs and he has a loaner. He signed up for autocross on Sat so I told him he could take Tigger. I am not taking the Impala on the run, so if this happens would someone be able to let me ride along? He should know tomorrow if he'll get Max back in time. You can ride with me if needed.

TGGRRR (Ali) Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 You can ride with me if needed. OK, I would probably take the loaner to the meeting area and leave it there for the day.

MiniMaul Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 Are the walkies your using on your runs the FRS band type? I still haven't unpacked everything from my move and can't find my old walkies. As far as still being a "Maybe"... Still trying to meet a deadline at work so I can make the trip. I should know by tomorrow morning, but no later than noon.

TGGRRR (Ali) Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 sigh - I tried to make it work but I won't be coming. I know I can ride with someone but Mark is leaving for the week on Sunday and I decided that since he needs Tigger Saturday I would like to spend the day with him. So I'm going to autocross with him. Hope you guys have a great day!!!! Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
