September meeting

I put up a september meetinng on the calander,

https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...uests=2&e=1209

hopefully that link works

A map of the route: Pizza-Meeting

I'll be calling the restaurant of goodness a few days prior so that we can reserve enough space, although i don't forsee it being an issue as they open at 11, and we should be there about that time or shortly after, depending on how spread out we get on the drive up.

please respond w/ the number of copilots you'll have, and whether you'll be stopping at Old C's or not, so i make sure to give correct warning to both locations!!

There will be a photo scavenger hunt, w/ prizes for top 2!

hope to see you there!

I should be there with Cristina as my co-pilot (or the other way around) but that's 2 more. We'll let you know if anything changes .

I hope everyone had a great time today. It was such a beautiful Colorado day. Thanks to Jeremy for the suggestion and the photo hunt. In return for his hard work putting this together for everyone, the club has given Jeremy a 50th Anniversary Mini Coin.
Thanks Jeremy - well done!
(can't wait to see so pictures)

We had a fun drive up and great lunch with everyone. I sure hope everyone had a great drive down to the OC in Loveland.

We went up into RMNP, nice drive and it was free entry day. Can you say crowded. Lots of pretty colors up towards Trail Ridge road.

Pictures in the morning, we drove over to Greeley for dinner with youngest son after RMNP. I had to look at them, so posted them up. See below.

Chuck you posting from WP or home?

Don

It was an extra great day for a drive in the Mountains.

We saw all those potential extra Quiz pictures driving down to Loveland, but we did not take any pictures.

Here is a link to the MINI5280 drive up and lunch gathering. I included a couple of pictures from our drive around RMNP. Even caught a MINI heading up Trail Ridge (CR/W), very clean looking. :-)

Hey, all, sorry I couldn't make it. My weekend started getting away from me before it even got here, and today was full of too many things to set aside. Glad it sounds like everyone had a good time! I may have to go for a drive tomorrow just to enjoy this beautiful weather.

We had fun and the weather was great. I only took pics of the photo scavenger hunt items. I love the MINI cookbook...maybe I'll make something from it for the GBSHF picnic....
And thanks Tom for bringing the black "S"... it looked great on the boot.

Teena

I left Estes and drove over Trailridge to Grandby then down to Winter Park. Just a perfect day. This afternoon we left Winter Park and came back to Denver. Another stunning, top down kind of day. Berthoud Pass was fun as usual - I thought of Bahman doing his first run over it and how he could not stop smiling - my 700th time over and I still smile.
