That may be a good day to make it a "road trip"... maybe a little run on the CANADIAN side along the river... Niagara Falls to Niagara on the Lake and back to the pub.....hmmmmmmm

If there's under 2 feet of snow! (may have to send my passport in for renewal before then though- have to check the border crossing regulations!)

I was at Towne the other day & warned Dan Ives & the crew that I'm going to stop in around 3 pm and get a better look at the Clubman in the show room. Anybody else in?

Sorry, Lex, I just sent my passport in to be renewed before it expires, but I'd like to go when I get it back! (Especially since the latest picture I got is a BIG improvement over the last one!)

Charva · Motorist

I'm up for Shannon Pub!

I saw and sat in the Clubman but have not taken one out for a test drive yet.

Next week Tuesday, I'm dropping off my MINI for NYS Inspection and roof rack install. I'll get a loaner and pick 'er up on Wedenesday!!!!

I'm interested in the Clubman but I don't think I want to buy a new one until they remedy the torque steer issue hmm

So, are we going to meet up at Towne at 3?

SPDinNY · Motorer

or what time will be meeting up at the pub?

yellowmininy · Obsessed (Taking the long-cut)

I think we'd aim for 5 at the pub. Yes, I know it's dining hour for the elderly.

OK, who's up for meeting at Towne, and/or dinner? Show of hands, for anyone who hasn't chimed in yet?

SPDinNY · Motorer

Well, we will be at Jacks at 11am to get some fun stuff done. We will certainly try to be at Towne at 3pm and will be going to the pub at 5pm.

Charva · Motorist

SPDinNY · Motorer

Bagpiper · Motorist

With bagpipes? :)

Mitch · Motorer

Wish I could come an introduce myself, but my fiancée has a wedding shower that day and her father and some of the grooms men are going to be going out for a drink. Maybe some other time.

With how many Minis? Are you down to the usual number of keys?

Charva · Motorist

Man, am I ever stuffed!

What a feast at the Shannon!!

Nice to see everyone and meet some new clubbers!

Speaking of Clubbers...the Clubman was a hoot to drive and the torque steer problem from the 2007's seems to be resolved. Long live the Clubman!

This lucky couple from Central NY was picking up a Hot Chocolate Clubman...

Here's hoping they'll sign on here, and maybe meet us in Watkins Glen! :big grin:

It was a great time, and thanks to all who came out & Dan & the folks at Towne for putting up with us. (Let us know if we sold any cars...)

Bagpiper · Motorist

GREAT FOOD and better conversation at the Shannon!

Thanks

SPDinNY · Motorer

a BIG thanks to Jack for showing me the ways of a sway bar install on Winnie. I learned alot about my Mini in the process. I feel bad that Nicole and I were unable to attend the pub meet, we both were very tired and had a big Sunday ahead of us. Jack, if what I gave Cathleen wasnt enough let me know and I can paypal you more or send you a check. It was a pleasure to meet you and your wife as well as Bryce (spelling?). Oh and I cant forget meeting Edna =)
