    Maybe! I know I'm going to send out a few tweets during MOTD see if anyone knows. Then again, cell service is terrible up there. But I'll try.

    I think it has to do with MOTD veterans...LOL. For me, after 15 straight years of attending [til this year, that is], MY butt is adraggin for weeks after returning home each year.

    Congratulations! I take it your first? I don't want to hear any talk of how you need to sale the MINI now. I have 4 kids, all grown now, but I got my first MINI when they were still home.
    Fun times ahead for you.

    Thank you! Everyone is so nice on these forums. I don't know why I didn't join Motoring Alliance sooner? I do appreciate you taking the time to post the comment. It actually motivates me to clean the car today.

    Yes, this will be the first kid. I'm more nervous than anything right now. But there is no selling the MINI. My wife and I have worked pretty hard to allow us to have hobbies we both enjoy. Besides the MINI is not my daily driver and we do have other cars that are better for transporting an infant around.

    Whenever I see this thread this pops into my head... Too much time on two wheels in my younger years I guess.

    Actually you apply it before a long ride, especially with the old British twins. On any extended ride the vibration of those would numb your legs from the thigh down and would definitely chafe your...er, butt.

    You can get cell service in the upper parking lot at the Dam by the big marker stone.

    You don’t need cell service now since most carriers allow calling on WIFI and you can that all over in the main areas of Fontana. Also at Killboys.

    You don’t need speed to make phone calls.

    True - but you do need connectivity. Which at least in my room in the hotel last week was very slow. That said, maybe it will be better this year.
