Jim Thorpe, PA Run - 06.03.06

This discussion came up over in the Triumph forum and I thought I'd post over here in case there is any interest.

I organize a drive each year with my MINI group (NEMINI). The group is made up of mostly new MINIs but classics are welcome too and a few members have both. Full details can be found in the link below but in a nutshell...

The date: June 3rd, 2006
The time: 10am (arrive no later than 9:30 to sign in, socialize, and make any necessary pitstops - driver's meeting at 9:55)
The meeting place: Cracker Barrel parking lot (Hamburg, PA)

This is a spirited drive through some nice twisty roads in northeastern PA, ending in the quaint little town of Jim Thorpe. Lunch is a BBQ ($5.50/person) at my parent's farm along the way. If you don't want to pay for the BBQ, feel free to bring your own picnic lunch. The total run time should be about 5-6 hours assuming 1.5-2 hours for lunch. After the run, those interested can join us for a jaunt over to a local drive-in movie theater to cap the night off with a movie under the stars.

Would love to get some classics out on the road with us. If you're interested, or have any questions, please let me know.

Full details can be found here.
