I am hoping to make it for at least the Saturday (it is around an hour from my house)! Working on permission from the boss at the moment!

Dave ... where is there a mention of this being a CMU event?

[MPlayle]

Classic Minis Texas is not a CMU chapter.  They are their own sort of group that does their own thing.

Their event is in conflict with the regular South Texas All British Car Day in Boerne, Texas on Oct 26th.

And here I was also contemplating the idea of another RM group Spring gathering for 2025 and doing similar drives basing out of Kerrville again.

All the Facebook post said was that it was a prep run for going to the CMU event in April - so I mis-interpreted what they wrote - my bad. Still, it would be fun to do, but my October is completely filled......
