Wanna make a run from Southampton to Montauk Point?  Think sunroofs open, tops down, mild spring weather, pre-Memorial Day traffic in the Hamptons and lots of MINI's!  I have more info on the run posted on nemini including Ferry discounts if coming from New England, but since most here are on Long Island, just the basics are here.

 
10:00 a.m. - Meet at Coopers Beach, Southampton, NY
10:15 a.m. - Motor to Montauk Point State Park (parking fee ~ $6)
11:00 a.m. - Park in the lot closest to the lighthouse, hang out, drool over MINI's, mingle, laugh, sightsee, take a lot of pictures.
12:30ish - Motor to Sag Harbor for lunch (I'll have further info and pinpoint directions to give out when we're in Montauk)
3:00ish - Motor back to the Sunrise highway via twistys, bridges, beaches (aka Noyak Road and North Sea Road) and head home (where ever home should be).

So that's the Big Picture.  Here are the smaller, yet important details. 

How to get to Coopers Beach:
For those with navigation - Coopers Beach is 268 Meadow Lane, Southampton.  For those already on the Island without navigation - take the Sunrise (Rt. 27) east and pick up this map:

I'm in on this run.  Maybe all of us Western Islanders could meet somewhere central.  Airport Plaza in Farmingdale (near the bagel place/Borders)?

Sorry I think that's the same day off H.I.N.  (Hot Import Nights) at Nassau Coliseum. My car should be there. (Got an invite from VTR)

[protools81]

i think i'm gonna take off that day and swing on out.  i'll make it definite this week...

[RobFriedman]

i might actually drive out there today as well  Sue and i usually do on Easter... though  me being a bit odd I'll end up at Camp hero instead of the point   

[Albiecrazy]

mini_z, that sounds like a good enough reason to not make it - if you make it on TV let us know!!

Rob - it's a nice day to motor; I'll put you on the list!

[TheWanderer]

I might be able to make this. Sounds like a nice run.

Between here and NEMINI, we're up to about 15 MINI's and roughly 20 people.  Lunch will be at Cappelletti Italian Grill in Sag Harbor.  Met up with the owner, Luigi, today and he's pretty excited to fill his lot with MINI's!  His wife and daughter own MINI's and it sounds like he may be next.  If I remember, we can get about 40 of us at tables and a few more at the bar...  just keep me updated since I want to give them a firm number a week prior to the run!

We just did the poker run and had a great time,
This run sounds like a lot of fun also!!!
So count us in ... 1-MINI 2 persons

[Albiecrazy]

Number of MINI's - now 21.  I've placed my order for blue skies and puffy white clouds...

I'm new at this, but just went on the Tax Day Poker Run and had a great time. Met lots of really nice people. Hope to see them all again soon!!:) So please count me in + maybe 1. I'll let you know for sure about the maybe 2 weeks before:)
Thanks Kellstoy
