    I'll try to get there around 7:45 and maybe get a quick bite to eat inside.

    Chuck, do you have a larger image of this year's route? All I can see is a tiny 320x380 image.

    Yes I have a whopping big image of that. If you & come & register I'll hand you a very nice copy of the map along with an attractions page & a route . We have decided posting a large map on line was probably counter productive.

    Hope to see you there Cooper. :Thumbsup:

    Going as a group is fine as long as the group remains small enough. IMO a 40 wheeled MINI is just too large. For me a 12 or 16 wheeled one works best. The other thing is folks like to run at different paces. Going slower than you want or having someone hound you to go faster sucks the fun out of it. Best to group up with folks that have similar tastes in velocity. :wink:

    I'll be at the B&E early for my greasy breakfast. Time TBD....

    Get gas before you leave town.... :D

    The route does go by virtual gas stations doesn't it or should I bring a couple of cans in the boot?

    You can get gas if you eat the right breakfast. Not sure if you want to burn that in your MINI though.... :prrr:

    Well looks like I will have to miss this year too. Work just picked up and MINI still needs worked on. Also, not sure the river run would be a great shake down. Would hate to hold anyone up.

    That is fine as long as he knows to let others by when they catch him. Sad but true every year there seem to be a few people who will not give way to others. Go figure???

    Last year we had a Land Rover Discovery do the tour.

    So that would make it an Aftrunner?

    I am sure it will still be faster than a Slowstice :)

    Brian now I am expecting the Bobs from Office Space to be on the River Run.

    He is definitely not one of the Bobs, more like Samir. He is cool, he watches Top Gear, has done a track day at Laguana Seca, big into photography. He would fit right in with us.

    Be there or be square....:Thumbsup:

    The MINI has a full belly of REAL gasoline, and I just gave her a bath, so she's all sparkly and clean...:D

    See everyone in the morning.... Weather is supposed to be nice....
