Congrats on taking the oath and welcome to the League Zhanate!

You will never find a greater bunch of folks to call family than your fellow MINIacs in the LXM!

Btw, very nice Clubbie you have there!

Oh and if you pass us by on the road while out motoring, don't forget to wave!

In the meantime we will be out there, keeping the wave alive, one MINIac at a time!

Motor On!
