Is anyone else thinking of doing a turn and burn just for the hill climb? I can't escape my role as a stay at home dad for the whole weekend, but I'm free Sunday. Thinking of doing a hard burn to make it out there for the start of the day. Anyone esle want to meet up and do an early morning Mini caravan?

Hi everyone. Please do remember, in fact right now would be a good time to put it in your MINI, please do remember to bring your membership badges this weekend and display them proudly. This is especially important for Sunday. If you are not a PSMINI member but a member of another club please bring that badge, card, or whatever your club uses to signify membership. Thank you!

As much as it pains me to do so, I am opting out of this weekend. The impending arrival of the first grandchild may or may not actually happen this weekend; but the grief I would get if she does appear would far exceed the joy of driving Maryhill.
So like all the Mariners fans say "There is always next year..." But I'm telling you here and now, if the little one hasn't popped out three weeks from now we are going to Minis on the Beach anyway!
