I went to that place once, they even have gluten free varieties and they were very good Does the Groupon for Don Lencho have a per table limit? Sometimes they limit one per table Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
mbiedzinski Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 Don Lencho voucher says 1/table. I did purchase one.
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted March 12, 2015 Author Report Posted March 12, 2015 Don Lencho voucher says 1/table. I did purchase one. I guess if a bunch of people buy them we just figure it out when we get there Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted March 21, 2015 Author Report Posted March 21, 2015 Doing the pre-run today! :motor: :motor: Will probably try out the restaurant too :eating: :eating: Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted March 21, 2015 Author Report Posted March 21, 2015 The Pre-run and pre-eat went great. The meeting place has a community center where there are bathrooms but there's no gas or coffee so come with a full tank. Mark modified the run a bit so that we can drive about an hour and it's about 35 miles, so yeah, we're taking the long way :-) He likes to drive these roads to test out his set up so he knew some nice twisty fun roads. The roads weren't in bad shape but there were some rough sections with potholes. We're going to mention in the drivers meeting that you want to leave plenty of space between you and the MINI in front of you, there's still a lot of crap on the road like sand from the storms and bits of rocks. These roads have very few shoulders so there aren't a lot of places to regroup if we get broken up, but we identified a few. This is going to be a relaxed run to get out and enjoy your MINI and the scenery. The restaurant was really good and the staff was friendly and are looking forward to our visit. Can the people that replied Maybe please confirm either way so that I can give a better count to the restaurant Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted March 23, 2015 Author Report Posted March 23, 2015 There are 11 maybes, if you know for sure can you please update your RSVP so that I can give the restaurant a more accurate count Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
