I couldn't make it to the last WAMO meet :( if there is another one anytime soon I would appreciate it if someone would post it on here. Thanks

 

Is there a kansas group? I'm in Kc MO

If they won't fling their doors open for you, there's WAMO a couple hours south down I35. Find us on Facebook: WAMO Wichita or yahoo groups WAMO_KS

 

I tried the link above but the server appears to be down. My parents are moving to Topeka, or the Topeka area, in July and we were wondering if y'all had any recommendations of places to live, places to go, places to avoid, anything? My parents are more than likely looking for a house similar to what they have now: 3500 sq. ft., 5 bedrooms, 4 baths, 3 car garage, nice neighborhood, .5 acre+ yard. No one in our family has ever lived in Kansas before so this is a new experience. Does Topeka get enough snow to warrant buying snow tires? I have them for my MINI in Boston and I love them. Any advice is appreciated! Thanks!

 

Drove thru Topeka once so can't help with locations. Kansas weather is anything it want's to be as long as it is inconvenient. Snow rarely hangs on more than a day or three so all season tires are usually up to the task.

This 'hook 'em horns' bidness... along the I-70 corridor you'll be better served to flip a coin between the Jayhawks or the Wildcats. Agieville in Manhattan has some killer saloons.

 

If you tire of Kansas weather, wait two minutes and it'll change. PS- it used to be a five minute wait.

 

Hey everyone I am very interested in knowing if there is a Kansas Club local to the Manhattan Area. I was stationed at Ft Riley Kansas and now attend Kansas State and would love to go to a meet or become a member of a local club. I see a few minis here and there but we need more!

 

Lotsa luck with that. We make a nana trip to the little apple fairly regularly and from the occasional MINI we see, there is rarely a wave. I think they are mostly transient dorm or barracks dwellers much like yourself.

 

Im not really sure how to take what you said there But anyways there are a few of us serious Mini maniacs at Kansas State and we always wave when we see fellow mini drivers. And I have a house in Manhattan, so I am not a barracks dweller, and have never lived in the dorms thank you!

 

Read your own post, just going by what you stated. Ft Riley then K-State, that description fits a multitude of folk from outside the immediate vicinity, i.e. 'transient'.

 

If you happen to be in the Wichita area look up the Wichita Area Mini Owners (WAMO). We are on facebook as WAMO Wichita. The KC Mini Enthusiasts are probably your closest bet though. You can always start your own group too. Good luck!

 

HEY EVERYONE! I am just checking in to see if there is still a following of MINIs in the Kansas area. I live around Ft. Riley Kansas and seem to see a lot of new MINIs..Anyone out there too?
