Spring is here, and its time to start motoring again! I traded my beloved '06 MCS with 91k miles for an '09 S Clubman with 7k miles. I just drive too many miles through the mountains with no cell coverage, to feel safe. Although, I really hated to trade. The '09 is certainly a different beast. Not worse, not better, just different. Turbo vs supercharged, larger vehicle, etc. But its still FAST and handles really well. I'm very pleased.

In case anyone is interested, the Tar Heel Minis have the Blue Ridge Parkway tour in June. We're going. It promises to be fun. The Hampton Roads Club Mini will again have a run out of Monterey, VA, in October. Check their website. Also, for the more adventurous, MITM and MTTS are in CO in August. Plus all kinds of other runs throughout the summer.

Maybe I'll see some of you on the road. Don't forget to wave, or flash your lights, or both.
