Hey, I think we should have T-shirts before we go to the GAP! How about
it Paul? Can you whip something up before the event?

A lot, last year about 300, of Miata owners showed up for the last weekend in July to run the eleven mile stretch and to socialize with each other.  You get to match faces with the names here on the list.  Miata owners show up from Alaska, California, Florida, Canada, Texas and even Maryland.  Bring you own beer, (dry county) lots of sunscreen and a couple rolls of film.  No invitations are sent, you just show up.  There will probably be a web site set up  prior to the actual "happening" listing local motels and phone numbers.  Don't order a T-shirt!
