So far no work commitments on this Saturday, crossed fingers it stays that way .. very do-able from Raleigh, only about 2 hours .. has this been posted to THMMC site (which is currently down) ..
Any plans for after the Open House? (food?? a drive?? anyone familiar enough with options in the area? too bad the Colonial Downs season will have closed out by then)

We had a couple of discussions on heading up to Bottoms Up pizza in downtown Richmond. There are a few good twisties not too far out of the way. Should be about an hour drive up there. Pretty cool place from what everybody says.

I've just sent out an email to our group of classic Mini owners (Mid Atlantic Minis), in an effort to get some classics to meet there on the 28th. We started working on a plan for a Moss visit last year, which was to take place in September just before their doors opened for business, but it never came to fruition. Hopefully we'll have at least a handful of classics to join in.

That'll be great! It's taken a good while to get this set up. I just hope the MINI/Mini community will respond!

As we get closer, we'll set up a group drive up to Moss. At the moment I'm thinking heading up 460. If nothing else simply because it's straight up to Petersburg and secondly, we haven't done 460 in a good while.

460 is a HUGE speed trap, but is the logical choice for this run up to Moss. I'm in  |

Well this event is just about a month away now. 460 has been mentioned, but little else. Any ideas's for a rendevous point and departure time would be very helpful. Sadly I can't drive two cars at a time. The classic will have to stay home for this trip, as my old behind requires some serious A/C till about the middle of October.  I'll probably only take the low ball crdit card too. I'm certain I'd be like a kid in a candy store otherwise. Then I'd have to post here from my prison cell.  |

I am planning on this run, where do we want to meet up? The sears parking lot on Witchduck seems to work pretty good for the south side members.

Okay, Cooper Vineyard is behind us and Moss MINI is on the horizon! I'll have a route figured out this evening hopefully. I'd also vote for an after event dinner up that way. Preferably with a nice drive to the restaurant. Lets think about either Famous Dave's BBQ or maybe Bottom's Up Pizza.
