They are too numerous to count!

If you want to see a bunch of great looking MINI's and Mini's, make the trip over to Dublin, OH for the Mini East Meet, which started today and goes through Sunday. MINIGuru is over here working on MINI's as well. It only took about 2 1/2 hours to get here, not a bad drive for a sunny day.

Motoring for the fun of it!

I saw a DS/B with Black bonnet stripes motoring down 26 comming out of the Purdue campus. It had been raining so my windows were up so I couldn't wave or give a thumbs up.

SG/B w/bonnet stripes MCS around 4PM US36 headed west just past the softball diamonds in Avon.

Probably not- Usually I am still at work that time of day. But then again, my memory is lacking sometimes.

Last Saturday around 5pm - Kroger Parking lot Brownsburg - BRG/BRG(?) and a big wave!

7/13 around 5:30pm West bound on 10th St. near the Cancer Survivor Memorial near IU Med.

Burnt Orange Cabrio. Great wave despite having been just cut off by someone crossing two lanes to make a last minute turn. Nice job.

A PW/B with Black bonnet stripes going north on Northwestern Av. at 5pm. I gave a wave but I doubt I was seen because I did it almost too late.

Two exciting sightings today:

1) CR/W with white bonnet stripes traveling west on 26 toward Purdue at about 2:30-3:00pm (can't recall). I gave a big thumbs up at the light I was turning left at. I didn't go initally when it turned yellow becuase I know drivers around here like to dart through at the last second.

2) I noticed a BRG/W sitting in the parking lot of the hospital right along 26. Sadly I can't remember the name of that hospital. It was about 4 pm.
P.S. That CR/W looked good, like it had just been washed. It was so shiny I saw it from about a mile away. (ok too generous, maybe half-mile)

I pass this one almost daily around 5:15pm. CR/W S with stripes and fog lamps parked by the Stutz building at 11th and Capitol, downtown Indy. Are you a member of MINICCI?

Well the day started off bad with two H2s on the same road. It was like a moving brick wall (even had the right color). But just after the those H2s I saw a CR/W MINI. I think it was the same one from my post from a couple days ago. It was going North on Main St. about 2:30pm. Later I saw a EB MINI in the parking lot of the Hospital right off of 26. That hospital is like some sort of MINI magnet. I've seen 4 different ones there in the last 5 months.

9pm today on South US.31 and Stop 11 the Mike Express Car Wash, I saw a CR/CR MINI Cooper with Aero Kit and R90 Wheel put out from the wash. I don't know if he realized express car wash was bad for his MINI. However, I got a wave.
