Congrats on the 100K milestone!

I'm 1% of the way there...must keep motoring...

 

It was really nice meeting everyone today that came out it was fun and cant wait to meet up you all of you again!!! I also was going to bring something up but forgot... I have a friend that is putting on a car show June 2nd in the Dubuque mall parking lot.... Its a benefit for Relay For Life and The American Cancer Society that she started 3 years ago with all profits going towards fighting cancer...So I thought I could help her get the word about the car show and talked with her and she said if we got at least 10 minis for sure she would put a mini category in the show... Here is her facebook page for more info and i do believe she has web page but not sure what it is off the top of my head... http://www.facebook.com/DbqCruisinFo...ref=ts&fref=ts
let me know your thoughts about it... Thanks Jake

 

I noticed that NEW MINIs (NEW = North East Wisconsin) are having a Door County winter drive in a couple of weeks. I sent a PM to their coordinator to see if I could garner some local recommendations for when we're up there on 10-11 May. Might be able to discover a new nugget or two.

 

That should be an excellent resource! I'm glad you discovered it

 

Hi all, I have not been around the forum for awhile. Looks like everyone is doing well and a couple of cool new cars as well.

Its still a ways off but the Iowa Region SCCA Solo schedule is set for 2013. Check it out at www.iowaregionscca.org

Happy motoring

 

Are you able to guess which car won the 2013 Dakar race in the desert in Peru?

 

so cool! thanks for the link!

 

This is almost a year and a half away, but it might be something we want to put on our EIM radar screen for next year...

The advance planning that's already been done is impressive...and it looks like Milwaukee MINIs, M.I.N.I., and CMMC plan to accommodate and welcome both MINIs and Minis equally.

 

I've got it inked in my calendar

 

I put this on my calendar and liked the Facebook page.

 

Me, too!

 

Would you believe the route is already mapped out for the 4/27 Border Skirmish Drive?

Not that I'm itching to get out and motor or anything.

 

I would most certainly believe that!

 

We can't wait! Ready to do some motoring.

 

It's time to roll out the annual viewing of the ever popular Dusting the MINI video.

So, for your viewing pleasure, here it is

 

Think: SPRING IN DOOR COUNTY! Before we get a dedicated thread to this May 9-12 event, we need to get some lodging locked in now. Our Purple Temptress is reserving some two-bedroom suites for this exciting EIM event. If you want to snag a great $76 resort room in Sister Bay, please PM me ASAP so you can stay with the most fun MINI folks in the United States.

 

I think I can take a quick break from my dusting so I can fire off a PM to you...

 

Just to give you a small taste of Door County, here is a link to some photos I took from our trip there last fall

Included are pics of the Scandinavian Lodge where I am reserving some rooms.

 

This wll be great! Looks like more MINI fun!!!

 

Thanks for the pics Linda...looks like a superb MINI destination!

 

Looks like the perfect place for some EIM fun!

 

this might be fun

There is 1 room left in the block of suites Linda reserved for May 9-12 in Door Country. If you want it, please give a yell. We will try to add on rooms, if needed, but there is a sure thing with this last room.

More fun than we deserve, but we're gonna have it!

 

I would like the room, Deanman!

 

We would also like to go. Any last minute rooms that may become available?
