Well @DavidJCW has decided to embrace his inner Kevin McCallister and see what mischief he can come up with. He has put together a great scenic drive that travels some of the best twisties in NW Virginia. The Run will start in Haymarket and cruise out the Luray to grab lunch. This will be an out and find your own way back run. From Luray there are great routes to come back to home for you. Those heading more north will be at the start of skyline drive just to give one example. Schedule: 1015 - Drives Meeting 1030 - Wheel up 1200 - arrive in Luray. Come out and give your MINI a good shack down as you prepare for MINIs Take The States. RSVP on the event here: 1975 Mini 1000, 998cc A+ w/ K&N air filter, 10" Mamba wheels
STXMINI Posted April 14, 2022 Report Posted April 14, 2022 DAAAAAVIIID!! I got the run all posted up on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. There is also an event page on FB. Looks like a great run thank you David and Michelle for putting this together!
DavidJCW Posted April 15, 2022 Report Posted April 15, 2022 This is a scenic route starting at Sheetz in Haymarket. We will be running radios and I will have a navigator (even though there are only 2 or 3 total turns on the run). I will have at least one extra radio for anyone that needs it. From the Haymarket Sheetz, we take VA-55 out to Marshall, VA, then we hit the back roads all the way to Sperryville. There is a gas station & Convenience store just as we come off the B-roads and hop on to 211; we will stop there to fuel up and pit stop. Then it is up and over the mountain to Luray. I am looking at different spots for lunch to cap the run and get some pictures. Hope to see some folks there. 1
TATTRAT Posted April 26, 2022 Report Posted April 26, 2022 Was going to try and make this, but am heading in another direction. Hope you get some folks though! flickr
DavidJCW Posted April 26, 2022 Report Posted April 26, 2022 I appreciate you! No worries though; If there are no takers I will just cancel and volunteer to lead a different ride. It was worth a shot!

I’ll post again on social media, unless you think we should cancel?
DavidJCW Posted April 27, 2022 Report Posted April 27, 2022 I sent you a DM, but at this point I am leaning towards cancelling.
