I agree!  Let's plan it for next year.  There are some fun roads we could take.

Kelly & David in the red 05 NAVIGTR took a drive to Whidbey Island to Coupeville on Sunday this weekend for the MusselFest and it would be a fun event to add for next year for our group or northenders...

Ok. I have a run we can do Saturday. It's about a 100 mile loop (not too long..not too short) and starts at Krispy Kreme in Issaquah (and ends in Issaquah). I'm thinking a 9:30 start time. Who is up for it!?!? Thumbs Up  Go to Event post below and let me know if you are coming...

The weather is supposed to be nice, so even though we can't attend this weekend, it sure would be great to know there is a group of Minis out there playing together! Thumbs Up

We want to drive!  Either Peninsula or Eastside is fine.  Tell us when and where and we'll see you there.

The drive from North Bend, Ellensburg and the Canyon Road route to Miners gets our vote!!  Crikket has a bad case of "garage fever" and busting out for a drive across the pass sounds perfect!

Thanks for your $.02 cents worth Jack! I can't go on the motor on Saturday the 6th because I'll be working at the wine festival but I could use all the minis I can get on Sunday the 7th!! My committee is not an official Rotary committee (and I am the only member) but if I get a good showing on Sunday, maybe they will make my committee official!!

We could do a North Bend Meet-up, I-90 to Cle Elum, back roads (Highway 10) from Cle Elum to Ellensburg, Canyon Road to Yakima and Lunch with Tristan at Miners (depending on conditions at the Pass)
 
A shorter drive alternitive:  We could meet Tristan and other East siders at the Red Horse Diner in Ellensburg for Lunch.

Sounds like a Yakima Drive is out... But if you as a whole group decide otherwise, please let me know.. I still have my Mini and want to drive it as much as I can...

We could start earlier in the day before the traffic wakes up as well. And that should allow time to spiff up the MINIs for the next day.

I would vote for a Peninsula run as well.
 
Only one suggestion:  Since many of us will be attending the March 7 , Des Moines Wine Festival we will want some time on Saturday to get our cars spiffed up and looking good for Sunday.  We probably don't want to make the Saturday drive an all day event.  Just my $.02 worth...

I like the idea of the Penninsula run.

As for the ticket, they tried to catch us one time but between me (pre stealth status)and Calvin (Grape Ape), we IDd him before there was any damage.

If you do Chuckacanut drive, why not just come up a few more miles to Birch Bay! We could all stop at either the state park or at C.J.'s or even continue to Semiamoo. (Disclaimer: Yea, I live in Birch Bay, and it would be a hoot to see my neighbors faces when 30+ Mini's possibly show up at my house for a pit stop)

I took Creampuff out on Saturday.  Did the Mountain Loop Hwy up to Verlot.  What a gorgeous day!  Lots of motorcycles were there too.  Just made me love Mini's and MINI's all over again!

A drive really is therapeutic.  Saturday I did Bremerton, Poulsbo, Bainbridge Island. Sunday was Snohomish, LaConner, Stanwood. The Snow Geese were in the fields - how awesome to be under them when hundreds of them take flight!  All the mountains were gorgeous. Beautiful, beautiful weekend in my MINI Big%20smile
