davekmd Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 Anyone heading out to Lily Pons (Adamstown, MD) this Sunday for the "Original British Car Day"? If so, drop me a PM or email and/or look for a 09 PepperWhite S, sport stripes, and soon to be mounted Rota RBs! Cheers!
Brian0758 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 Looks like a fun time and it is close to Virginia. Since I am missing the fact I was at MU09 in Silverstone, UK last week, I might just have to go and see if it helps. :rock: Brian 2012 Jeep Rubicon
Brian0758 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Posted June 3, 2009 I did a quick search and here is what I found: http://www.chesapeakechaptermgtclub.com/ Lily Ponds is located close to Frederick and Sugerloaf Mtn. in Maryland. I remember on a run last year we passed by a bunch of MG's and I that is where they were going. B. PS I also noticed that this year's marque car is the classic mini 2012 Jeep Rubicon
davekmd Posted June 4, 2009 Author Report Posted June 4, 2009 Last year I know I was passed by probably 20-30 Minis right down the road from Lily Pons. I thought folks might have met up there, looked at cars, and then went motoring! It sure looked like a ton of fun, ergo I have the MINI this year. I also have 'back-up' support and will be grilling in the parking area (tailgating). Look for a white EZ-up canopy and tan CRV and come on over for food and refreshments!
Brian0758 Posted June 4, 2009 Report Posted June 4, 2009 Hey Dave that was probably a DCMM run we had before the 1st Annual Picnic. What time are you heading over and where might you be leaving from? :motor: 2012 Jeep Rubicon
davekmd Posted June 4, 2009 Author Report Posted June 4, 2009 I live near the Howard County fairgrounds and plan on leaving around 9:30 to arrive around 10:30. (It's probably just a 1/2 hour to get to Lily Pons but leaving with a small caravan ... you wind up a bit late). Anyway we'll be heading West on Rt 70 at Rt97. We'll have the 09 PW MCS and a Honda CRV. Several of my neighbors have attended and I usually extend the invite to them. One of my neighbors shows his pristine (all original) 69 TR6. I've gone for the past 4-5 years and previously (not last year) it was very, very hot, so we started bringing an EZup canopy. Well if you bring a canopy you need chairs. If you bring chairs you need refreshements, and if you have refreshment, you need snacks, and if you have snacks well you need REAL food and that means a grill. Ergo the 'support' vehicle CRV. Shoot me a PM and give you my cell. Perhaps we can meet up or at least you can certainly stop by and get some food and drink. Nothing fancy proably brats or Italian sausage and chicken and burgers, etc. Cheers!
Brian0758 Posted June 4, 2009 Report Posted June 4, 2009 Sound good. I will plan on tracking you down at the event. See ya, Brian PS I am in an 05 Cooper S w/ HYPR BLU tags. 2012 Jeep Rubicon
that7guy Posted June 4, 2009 Report Posted June 4, 2009 If the weather is nice and the car is clean, I'll make an appearance [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
davekmd Posted June 4, 2009 Author Report Posted June 4, 2009 Outstanding! I'll have the Pepper White MCS, sport stripes and (hopefully) silver Rota RBs wheels. The support vehicle is a tan CRV (just look for a white EZup canopy over in the general parking area, close to where folks pull into the event. If I'm not there, standby, I'm probably down the hill looking at cars. We make a ritual of looking a bit, chilling/grilling, looking a bit, chillling/grilling, (repeat often). The invite for food and drink is open to all. Stop by say Hi, get some food/drink, shoot the breeze, etc.
Jeremy1026 Posted June 4, 2009 Report Posted June 4, 2009 Hey Dave, nice to see you make your way over to DCMM. I take it you saw my post on NAM? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Brian0758 Posted June 8, 2009 Report Posted June 8, 2009 It was great meeting all of you. The show was a lot of fun and the Classic Mini's were sweeeeet. I should have entered mine in the 02 or new class since I would have be guaranteed a least a 2nd place. :top: 2012 Jeep Rubicon
