filet0fish Posted October 2, 2009 Report Posted October 2, 2009 I will most likely have a meeting in Frederick sometimes next week. Lunch with a view of MINI might be a good idea. wanna join? Sure. Just send me a PM when you know what day/time/etc.
Iflyga Posted October 2, 2009 Report Posted October 2, 2009 Next Friday would be awesome. I work from home Fridays! There are a few options where there is room for a few mini's parked together all nice-like. "Skylar" -2009 JCW Hard Top. See my Mondo-Minis page for more.
Iflyga Posted October 2, 2009 Report Posted October 2, 2009 Yesterday was a fantastic MINI spotting day! Six on the drive from Frederick to Alexandria plus a couple in the parking garage at work. And then, another 10 from Alexandria to the British embassy during afternoon rush hour. It was so cool to see them everywhere I looked! "Skylar" -2009 JCW Hard Top. See my Mondo-Minis page for more.
Maxicooper Posted October 2, 2009 Report Posted October 2, 2009 (edited) Next Friday would be awesome. I work from home Fridays! There are a few options where there is room for a few mini's parked together all nice-like. Next Friday is kind of tight for me. Would it be possible for Tue or Thu? I can change things around during those days. Let me know. Edited October 3, 2009 by Maxicooper
Iflyga Posted October 2, 2009 Report Posted October 2, 2009 Sorry. Cannot make it Tuesday and Wednesday, but can't wait to hear about your lunch. Take photos please! "Skylar" -2009 JCW Hard Top. See my Mondo-Minis page for more.

urayamu Posted October 13, 2009 Report Posted October 13, 2009 Saw a pepper white cooper with checkered side mirrors southbound on 270 today. Waved to each other when our cars were next to each other during todays rush hour traffic.
MINI_Voyager Posted October 25, 2009 Report Posted October 25, 2009 (edited) Ran into TGGRR :itsme: at PMoA yesterday around noon, when I dropped by for a free state inspection. And then later on in the afternoon, saw a BRG with white bonnet stripes on southbound Rt 1 with a DCMM stick on the back window (I was on your right rear, about 1 car back) at about 2:20 pm. Also waved to a couple of other MINIs and got one wave back. :top: Edited October 25, 2009 by MINI_Voyager Added time
urayamu Posted October 25, 2009 Report Posted October 25, 2009 (edited) saw a lot of minis today..the two that stood out was the orange cooper convertible in the parking lot of pepboys in germantown, her driver purchased an "ed hardy" steering wheel cover.. the other one was a r53 cooper chili red with white top driven by an older couple in rockville pike near gude dr. that cooper had custom "belgian flag color" side mirror caps on it. couldn't wave to any of them since I wasnt driving our mini at that time.

urayamu Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 I saw Krut on Pacific Blvd heading back to the shop as I was leaving the dealership this afternoon. Didnt get a chance to wave since I saw him too late. I am the one in the pw cooper with checkered side mirrors.
coyttl Posted November 2, 2009 Report Posted November 2, 2009 Was over at the Lowe's / Chiplote in Gaithersburg today, saw a Red MC(S?) with the plate stamped "MNI...". Can't remember the full plate, but figured it was someone here or a true MINI nut.
VioletDC Posted November 13, 2009 Report Posted November 13, 2009 Saw a PW on the beltway headed toward Tyson's Monday morning. She was in the 2ndmost left lane, and I was in the left-most left (does that make sense?) lane. I saw her ahead of me at one point, as the traffic inched along b4 I could take my exit on2 66. I pulled up next 2 her, honked my horn and waved. My lane was moving a little faster, so I couldn't tell if she saw/heard me. However, w/in a few seconds, she came abreast of me and looked over, smiled, and happily waved, and I returned the same. I just love it when that happens! 'scuuuuze me while I kiss the sky ~ Jimi
VioletDC Posted November 13, 2009 Report Posted November 13, 2009 Followed a BRG MC this rainy morning on Rt 5/301 in MD on my way 2 the dreaded DMV! I tried 2 wave, but couldn't tell if the driver saw me or not. Eventually, they turned off of 301 and I kept going, so I tooted my horn and waved again. :wavey: 'scuuuuze me while I kiss the sky ~ Jimi
FAST060 Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 Tagged a New HzB/B MCS at HQ today! I can't wait to park next to him and take MCS-Twin pics w/ Blue Haze!:rock: https://www.instagram.com/smokiendabandit/ 2009 MCS, HzB/B, CWP, PP, "BLUR" MOTORING ID: SOAR143 - MINI Community Service 2013 JCW GP, Thunder Grey, "SMOKIE" MOTORING ID: FAST060 2014 MCS Clubman, Highclass Gray, "THE ADMIRAL"
GreenCactus Posted November 19, 2009 Author Report Posted November 19, 2009 That blue Flex waving was me. I didn't even see you!! I remember seeing a blue Flex, but I didn't pay attention to the driver! I would've waved back if I saw you waving.
ZugZugMcD Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 Sorry for going off topic, but for the life of me I can't seem to get my wife to trade in her old Envoy for a Flex... Can you see out the back ok? My wife backed her Envoy out of the garage and into my MC. Unfortunately her metal NY Yankees hitch cover 'branded' my front bumper. 2009 MINI Cooper S Clubman
CARdiac Posted November 23, 2009 Report Posted November 23, 2009 Friday we saw a DS/B pulled over by the police on the Clara Barton... I remember the lic plate was Super Cooper (don't remember spelling tho). I hope you got out of the ticket... also I hope they did not mistake you for me. I drive a DS/B and we got pulled over in the morning going at a good clip on the CB. We were let off with a very stern warning.

that7guy Posted November 23, 2009 Report Posted November 23, 2009 I remember when there were never any cops on Clara Barton. Now it seems like they hide behind every corner. Maybe its because of all those top speed runs we used to do back in high school...:laugh: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
urayamu Posted November 29, 2009 Report Posted November 29, 2009 I was with the fam in annapolis last night. Just for kicks I decided to stop by Mini of Annapolis after hours. Saw the Mayfair for the first time parked in the lot. The wifey loves it but I still want the JCW. Nicely specd for 30 grand but I'm not a fan of the same colored top and the white interior. Our little one's gonna have a merry time with it if we do get that white interior....
Gart Posted December 2, 2009 Report Posted December 2, 2009 Tuesday dec 1 saw a grey mcs spun out on the entrance ramp just before the kennedy center about 5:27 pm.(just before you cross the roosevelt bridge)the left rear tire was missing and it looked like all the airbags were deployed. :boring:
GreenCactus Posted December 9, 2009 Author Report Posted December 9, 2009 I was behind a blue (hyper blue?) MCS yesterday on west bound 66, near Arlington. They had a Cherry Picking Run cling, so I found them in the pictues! It's the MINI to the right of the Nightfire Red cabrio. Due to the tinted windows, I couldn't see who was driving, but I know they waved!!
