Flickr Group for MINI Takes The States

Thought y'all might be interested.
An MTTS Flickr group has been started so we can get all Flickr photos in one pool. If you don't have a Flickr account, it's free to join and a really cool way to share pics.
Here is the Flickr MTTS address: http://flickr.com/groups/mtts

Every time I try to sign up for Flickr, it logs me completely off the internet. WTF?!?!?

I plan on continuing to try.

There are "recommended" hotels for each night, listed on the MTTS website (in the PDF files) ... many of them may be full now.
There is no established hotel for the night in CT after LimeRock; the original recommended hotel was tiny and fully booked before MTTS was announced.

Lime Rock

Is the only place where you will find it hard to find a place to stay. I would try the closest city then driving in to Lime Rock. Its on the NY, CT, Mass. Boarder.
Check the www.minitakesthestates.com site and lodges link.

www.Tripadvisor.com will help you find the best places to stay and give you the best review

Thanks for the info. I was able to make reservations with no problem...even at the MTTS "headquarters" hotels. Limerock is full, but I found someplace 10 minutes away.

I have been trying to find out who is playing the MINI Music Festival in Nashville. No luck so far. I have been checking Pollstar recently and there still isn't anything showing up. I even googled tour dates that had planned stops in Nashville on 8/28...nothing except for one of the local clubs. ARRGGHHHH....the suspense is killing me. Anyone heard any rumors? I wonder if it is going to be a bunch of local Nashville musicians or someone big.

I am getting really excited about MTTS (can you tell??). I hope they send out some information soon!

Just got the stuff today. It's not in a box though, it's a big envelope.
Two red wristbands, a travelogue, MINI Quarantine Kit, and a 2006 MINI TransAmerican Motortastic Road Trip to End All Road Trips Rally decal, among other goodies!

I've been banded. I finally got it. I just need to hear where to put the window decal. I'll never take the band off. At least not until after leg 4.
