Spotted! Brown/White MC on CountyFarm Rd by ButterField Rd. this Friday morning at around 8:25am. (not sure of the city). You were sipping coffee and I think you were also on the phone (Hands free kit) or talking to
yourself with great emotion...j/k about the 'great emotion part.'

I was in my commuter Civic so you didn't notice me.

For those of you in the Schaumburg are and ahve a IB/B - HB/B MINIs (doesnt have to be that color combo..but would make some killer pics if it was ). Kenchan and I are meeting up at the Streets of Woodfield Parking lot on Sunday at around 2:30pm. I figure we could get a nice photoshoot going if more than he and I are there.

I think that BRG/G was me... I think I saw you getting out of your parked MINI. I drove through on the way home from a friends house. Trailed a PW MC eastbound on Golf Rd shortly after leaving Woodfield area.

Hope to check you guys out on your next outing MiniMac2005

I'm glad to hear that your wife is ok. Car can be fixed/replaced, people can't. I saw your pics today. They came out pretty sweet

You know you want to buy my car!!
