New Owner - putting on the miles.
Hello to all MC Owners ... and WannaBees.
Wife & I are new owners ... 2008, R&B w/strips, sunroof, F & R fog plus driving lamps, heated seats, and a black mask to protect the front from chips.
We live in Breckenridge, CO. Interested in joining the local group and participating in the upcoming "Minis In the Mountains" this August.
Got back last week from a 2875 Mi. road trip to Taos, Santa Fe, Phoenix, the Grand Canyon, up to Utah to Moab, etc. Heading out on another trip tomorrow to Bloomington, In. then up to GR, Mi. and back by the end of the month. And YES ... we're loving it !

Ted,
I am glad you are enjoying your mini. I expect mine to arrive from Oxford in about a month. I would love to have the time to put in as many miles as you as soon as I get my car.
A question: How did you find the comfort level? What seats did you opt for?

Howdy.
Comfort level is great ... especially for a "mini car". Much better than any little Honda, etc. I've ridden or driven.
More leg rooooom than one would expect.

Welcome & Congrats Ted! Sounds like you are enjoying showing your Mini the sights. 
Alittle heads up for fellow travel lovers... If you are considering heading to NC for Minis on the Dragon when it rolls around next spring you might want to consider reserving a room or cabin now. Though its nearly a year away they are booking up fast. Just booked a cabin myself. Wasn't taking any chances on missing out.
