The annual drive to the annual Cooper Vineyard MINI Rally!
Starts at Bruster's Ice Cream 9101 W. Staples Mill Road, Richmond, VA 23228
Drivers meeting at 9 AM
Wheels up at 9:30 SHARP!
The drive is around 50 miles and will run us right at 1 1/2 hours with a small break mid route. There are some nice twisties that are challenging without being scary. We take it at the posted speed limit, but remember, we don't need to slow down in the curves!
So fill up that tank and meet us at Bruster's Ice Cream for a fun drive over to Cooper Vineyard!

Too long of a drive for a 0900 departure for me.  Enjoy.

I plan to be there and will rally the troops here in Richmond! I can try to put together a group to meet you guys over at Brusters. Be careful on/near Rt 33 as the county mounties are always there...even on the weekends  .

It'll be good to see both of y'all at the Run over to the Vineyard. Mike, I know what ya mean about the LEO's. We've been pretty lucky over the years without seeing many. But of course, we're on the legal side MOST of the time.  OH! And with Crown NOT helping out this year, we need as much help as possible getting the word out!

It appears that folks either don't want to meet up at the Cracker Barrel at 7am or they're just waiting for someone to take charge of that meet up. Although I'm new to the club (just a few days) and have no clue what its going to in tail. I'll be at the Hampton Cracker Barrel to Rally some folks there at 6:30 and wheels up at 7am.

Greetings from the burg!
We've got a group of MINIS that would like to tie in with ya'll around the Norge exit (depending on what time ya'll will be passing by), New Kent rest stop, or just meet up with everyone at the Staples Mill location in Richmond @ 9:00 a.m. Not sure what is the easiest or the most practical. Please keep us in mind!
Thanks!
Kimberly

How about meeting the Peninsula group at the New Kent rest stop ? We usually make a pit stop there anyway. Planning to leave the Cracker Barrel @ I-64 and Mercury Blvd in Hampton at 7 am. and NLT 7:30 am.

We WILL BE meeting up and leaving from the Cracker Barrel on Mercury Blvd. Hampton, for the run up to Richmond and then on to Cooper Vineyards on the 27th. !!!! Please try to be there early ! We should be leaving the parking lot at 7 am. in order to stay on schedule. Anyone that may be late, head up I-64 west and stop off at the rest stop in New Kent County to look for us. We will be stopping there to down load coffee and hopefully meet up with another group leaving out of the Williamsburg area.
