This not only reduces driver fatigue, but also lets you concentrate on driving your car - all of which improves saftey! :smile:

The Great Big List of Everybody
Count me in. I will be down all week. That week prior is an Annual Gap trip for our motorcycle chat room. Bringing my MV Agusta motorcycle and the MINI. Been to the GAP several years in a row now, but this last Oct. was the first time I took "Brit" thru it. AWESOME!! It was as much fun as the motorcycle. I figure I can ride half days and drive the other half. Best of both worlds.

My mom wants to come down with me and bring her motorcycle along... I want her to get a Cabrio and bring that. I wonder which will win out?

Cool there will be lots of moms there. What more could they ask for but to spend time with their children on the Dragon in a Mini
? This should be the best mothers day yet, for me and mom!

Sunshine MINI member here!
Just reserved a Laurel at Fontana!
My GF and I will be there and her father might tag along in a Scion Tc
Has the GREAT list been updated? Doesn't look like 300+ on there, would also be nice if it was numbered......
