Short weekend drive 8/19...

[visionaut]

Hi all,

 

I'm looking to do a fun little drive this weekend, and thought some of you guys might be interested.  It'll be a chance for a meet-up too.  All vintage bimmmer enthusiasts welcome.

 

It's one of my fave close drives I call the Canyon Coffee Run.  (Some of us have done it together before). See pics attached for the route and its options. Based on weather/interest it's anywhere from a 1-2 hour drive.

 

If interested, the meet-up would be on Saturday 8/19  at ~10am in the parking lot of Tipsy's - just off the Bowles and E470 exit.  I'm thinking we'd depart around 1/2hr later...

 

Likely just an out to Conifer for either Starbucks/Sonic then back via Meyer Ranch and Tinytown via Turkey Creek Canyon  over to South Valley park, though I'm thinking of a return route up through Evergreen and back via Morrison after the Conifer stop as well...

 

It's hard to arrange a widely agreeable date/time for a meet - it often pushes things out.  Maybe a later larger event (early Sept?) can be arranged when more can join - but I'm going driving this weekend anyway, and don't mind company ;-P

ps:70s and clear - what's not to like?   If no replies, I might skip stopping at Tipsy's (great deli there BTW) beforehand.

Rollin' solo -- maybe another time!

Tom,

Am getting ready for the D4C (Denver to Purgatory Ski Resort) drive next weekend and found I needed some new gaskets on the S14 exhaust manifold test ports.  Dealer is bringing them in Monday.  So I am just relaxing and waiting for the eclipse this weekend.

Hey Jim,

 

Good luck on your D4C trip!  Hope you have great weather.  Doing the final pm before a trip will occasionally throw a surprise.  We'll likely catch up in Sept -- I might try to pull something together again with more notice...

 

"Waiting for the eclipse" - isn't that an old heavy metal tune?
