2009 Motor Greater Galena ONE DAY ONLY Sept 19th details here
Motor Greater Galena Sept 19th. This is now a ONE DAY event.
We have a great set of routes planned in beautiful Jo Daviess County and the historic city of Galena.
Saturday’s events start with a scenic and very twisty drive out to Chestnut Mountain Resort. There we’ll enjoy lunch overlooking the Mississippi River and conclude with some seat time sledding down the 2,050 ft. “terrain-tailored track to the banks of the Mississippi.
After sledding we will depart on a Tour of Galena back roads ending in downtown Galena for shopping and or dinner with your MINI Friends.
We will meet and depart from Winnebago (just west of Rockford) Saturday morning. Starting here will make it convenient for everyone from Chicago, Rockford and Wisconsin to join us.
FYI, there is no pit stop on the leg from Rockford to Chestnut Resort. Why you ask? Because we are driving back roads with no services, please get the small coffee.
Sat 12:00 pm Group Lunch and slide at Chestnut Mountain Resort.
Iowa MINI Drivers may want to meet us at Chestnut for Lunch and the afternoon Tour.
Please reply below if you plan to attend to allow us to prepare the best possible event for YOU!

That's right Jim, you and I were the only two to book a room and the feed back I was getting from others lead my cancel my room and make this just a one day event. It's a driving event for the day with R&R for those that want it but not part of the event this year. Maybe next year.
