MINIsOnTop 2004 planning

Posted on by Ian C.

MINIs On Top 2004 – the planning continues!
Although it is still 2003, plans for next year proceed. The date, 19th June 2004, is set. There will be more than one drive – a long one from Bar Harbor to the mountain, as well as a repeat of the Kancamagus drive, and perhaps others if popular.

Info on this years and next years runs can be found at MINIsOnTop; active discussions of next years plans are occurring on this MINI2 thread.

See you there …

The big news today is an email from Steve Barnatt officially announcing MINIs On Top 2004:

MOT2004 announcement

(no idea how to cleanly transfer this email to the web, so sorry for the file size and missing on the animations!)

So if you want a GREAT day, plan on being in the New Hampshire White Mountains region in mid June 2004.
See my MINIsOnTop 2003 post if you missed the event, to give you an idea of why you should not miss next year!

MINIsOnTop 2003 DVD from Martin Ramshaw

Posted on by Ian C.

I received and greatly enjoyed watching a DVD of MINIs On Top 2003 today. It contains two “driving up the mountain” videos (from GadgetGav and Pezboy) and slideshow sequences of everyones photos.
Martin Ramshaw (“alfnotborninusa” on MINI2) must have spent many hours putting this together, and charged an embarrassingly low $6 to send it to me.

Martin wrote: I had downloaded the MOT movies done by gadgetgav and pezboy and thought it would be neat to see them on my large screen TV. So, I made a DVD, this worked pretty well so I downloaded all the pictures I could find, from this thread, the galleries of MOTers and from www.minisontop.com. I’ve created a DVD with the two movies (10:43 and 4:42 minutes) and 497 photos. I have pictures from alfnotborniusa(30) bethandlouis(27) bakerjc&capecodmini(6) danzmini2(2) elblue(8) gadgetgav(42) gmini(21) grumpy07474(33) harmini&ice&nhref(7) jennysup(15) mgbboy(7) neminimike(21) pezboy(84) rfinprc(23) MINIvsMoose(19) snid(49) teridrag(10) Mt.Wash.Obs.(3) gbmini(90).
Oops – for better or worse I topped the photo count!
You can use this MINI2 link to contact Martin; he might still be able to supply you with a DVD.

Thanks Martin!
