Wow...this was really fun! I only did half (up to Kualoa) and was still EXHAUSTED!!!! me sleeping =>

Note to parents...if your kids get bored while on an island tour...a walkie talkie is a fun way to keep them occupied. My son was nagging until DaKineMINI let him borrow his walkie talkie. From that point on, my son was my navigator, helping to relay the messages to me: "mom, they're passing Waimanalo Beach Park," "mom, I hear a McDonalds is up ahead," "mom, they said take a right at Castle Junction,"

thanks for Randy and the rest of the MoH folks for putting together a great island tour! Very well planned and executed!

This was WAY cool! Nice LONG drive but hey, we couldn't have wished for a nicer day in Hawai'i.

Big MAHALO to Kohu and MoH. The hot dogs rocked!

It was cool having our dual motorcycle escourt too. They did a nice job of filling the counterfeit MINI needs!

And, what about that MINI Moke, super cool stuff. I haven't seen that Masa's Auto Parts car on the road for quite a while. Boy the new owner has him self a piece of automotive history!

Aloha!

haha my bike is a counterfeit mini? ahhahahaha oh i have the sports bike. i forgot the guys name with the muscle bike. ahhaha that is funny.. but when we parked next to each other at our last stop.. i fogot the place's name... we were like oh man... all we need is tape and we got ourselves the counterfeit mini cooper convert. ahhahaha hilarious.. but on the serious note..

i really appreciate how you guys all treated me like family even though i didnt have a mini... it was fun and stuff.. that was my first time too... lots of memories too especially when the muscle bike had to do an emergency swerve from h3 to the off ramp while going "off roading" with his bike. he literally drove that bike through the grass at like 5723807505480234 mph!! i was like whoaaaaaaa. he got me scared ahhaha but all in all.. i had a blast!

Mahalo to MINI of HI and staff

Many thanks to MINI of HI and staff that helped to plan and guide us along the Tour and take care of the food and drinks at the end.

We had a good turn out and excellent weather.

And the "dirtiest MINI" award went to the DIRTIEST MINI I have seen in a long time. Ok, it's from driving around horses and a polo field in Waimanalo.
Hopefully all that dirt will wash off but it looked pretty dried on.

I think my "swiss" passenger Chris had a nice time visiting. He was missing his MC that he had to leave behind.

Nammerz,

Thanks for your help, glad you could join us.

I talked to my friend Edgar today and he had lots of fun, but was a little tired, though.

Hey! A big MAHALO to all the Motorers that "toured" the island!!
Mahalo to minikahuna and MINI of Hawaii for spearheading this tour.

Major kudos for my "co-pilot", Allyson, for her kokua. Without her great navigational skills, MINIAC, the Rally Master , might have led the MINI pack into the Pacific Ocean .
