Anyone else interested in getting an Iowa or Eastern Iowa MINI group going?
Not sure if a group for the whole state would be best, or to make it an Eastern Iowa group, since it seems like those who motor in Western Iowa would lean towards Eastern Nebraska if the rumored Omaha dealership is true. Anyhow, please chime in if interested.

There is kinda of an informal Iowa MINI group based in yahoo groups. However, if you would like to put something together that is a little more formal, I would be willing to jump in. Where are you at in Iowa? I'm over in Sioux City.
Yes, we do have a MINI Cooper group in Iowa. It is informal and does not have a charter, elected officers, or any of that stuff -- but it is a FUN group of people!
I'm one of the coordinators (along with Daryl in Cedar Rapids).
We have an annual fall cruise every October exploring a different part of Iowa. For 2006 we are heading up thru the Loess Hills to Sioux City. All MINI owners are invited to join us -- even if you just happen to be passing thru. Right now we are deciding between Oct 14 and Oct 21 -- hope to have a decision soon.
Hey, Greg, just joined the Yahoo group. From D.M. originally, thiniking of coming back for RAGBRAI this year. Anybody else riding? Any MINI events happening around that time?
Motor on!

My wife and I are moving back to our home state of Iowa in six weeks (after 12 years of suburban/urban hell in northern VA and hours of my life wasted away sitting in stop-and-go traffic on the capital beltway).
I'd certainly be interested in any eastern IA organized events. I guess Decorah is close enough to leverage the southern MN group, but it somehow seems sacrilegious...

My wife and I always go the British car fest in the Village of East Davenport. Its in late August and could be an event for the newly founded group. We could be named the East Iowa MINI Owners Group. EIMOG
