MINI5280 Members - North

Here is a thread you northerners can use to see who else is up in your part of the world. This might come in handy if you want to motor to a club event or just want to hang out together.
Please only those members up around Loveland, Boulder, Longmont, Ft Collins and surrounding areas. Keep the chat to a minimum so this thread is more of a reference thread then discussion thread.

I am in Louisville, drop me an email via NAM if you want to catch coffee or have a small group Sonic run. :-)

Btw, I learned this past Sunday that Cino's or the Brewing Market 1ST Saturday of the month coffee meet still lives.

Lot's of P cars, I can't make December, but may January if we have an early Spring.

5280NORTH

I guess all the Northern MINI's hibernate.

Just kidding, I'm in Longmont and I like motoring everwhere, north and south and in Denver.

I am with the Union, up here in the North. Actually in Longmont. So if we are North, and Colorado Springs is South, does that make Denver Central?

Welcome QD and Kathy, watch the calendar and the general postings in this 5280 Area.

Sometimes we do rides spontaneously, most times its a Sonic or Coffee run.

Welcome, good to have another MINI up north. Unfortunately I'll be working, so no run for us.

Kathy, have you made it to a 5280 session or are we still waiting to see you and your MINI, pictures here would be good.

This is one of the latest for my 07 MCS, after a fresh bath and hydro fluff.



My 2010 Scooter picture album is growing here: >>>>>>>>>

Vinny MINI,
What a beauty you've got !! I waxed mine today and then just sat and admired. I've felt every inch and now we've bonded.
I don't know how to put the picture of it on my post but it's on my profile.

Vinnie MINI,
I read my post and my expression of feeling the car may have sounded crude. I meant that feeling it made it real.
I'm 63 and this has been a dream for a long time.
