Title: Luv my bumblebee!
Post by: Goldie on July 01, 2009, 02:34:05 PM
Hi, all. I've been lurking for a while, and decided it's time to join in on the fun.

I've been driving my bumblebee for over a year now, and love it dearly. I try to be a good MINI owner and wave at everyone, traffic permitting. I'm told my car is a little distinctive, so if you've seen an '08 yellow non-S convertible with black bonnet stripes and RETRO on the license plate, that would be me.

However, despite having the funnest car around, I'm not having very much fun. This needs to change, and I'm hoping you guys can help me with that. I saw the notice about the run up to the Cooper vineyards in a couple of weeks and thought it sounded like fun. What do I need to do to sign up for it?

Thanks,
Nancy G

FUN is our middle name!!  HRFUNMINI.com    :044:  We welcome you along to join in with your fellow MINI lovers.  The Cooper Vineyard Run has always been one of my very favorites.  Just come on by the Cracker Barrel  (in Hampton at Mercury and Power Plant Parkway) prior to 8AM to join the group for the drive to Richmond.  We try to leave fairly promptly. 

I'm glad to hear you've decided to get out and socialize a bit.  We are all friendly and we don't bite (hard).

Hi Nancy, and welcome to the group :039:   You've found a good group to connect with. We are a casual type of car club. No dues, No President, No officers, heck, NO RULES AT ALL  :045:  We are all just a bunch of Mini lovers that like to get together and enjoy our passion for Mini's and each others company. Don't be a "lurker", come on out and join us for a
get together ASAP. We love newbies, and would love to meet you and your Mini !  I see that my better half (2fun4me) has
sent along the info about where we will be meeting up and driving as a group up to Richmond on the morning of the Cooper Vineyards event. Come on out and join us !  The Cooper Vineyards event is always a good time with some spirited
driving on the way to Louisa Co. and the folks at the Vineyard always make us VERY welcome !

As my better half has said, "we are all friendly and don't bite. (hard)  :wink: :wink: :wink:

Add another official welcome! :023: You got a great car and a great group here to help you enjoy it. I've added you to the Cooper Vineyard list. We had a great time last year and expect the same this year. Hope it's cooler though!

We're planning some neat runs in the upcoming months, culminating with the annual Fall Colors Run in the fall. DUH!

Good to have ya and hope to meet ya soon
