I can still make the 5th, guess I will motor up with some folks if that is still in the making for *$ at 120th&I25. We should set a time to drive.

My May plans have changed so I may be able to do the Grand Opening, too.

You guys decide on a place and time, I'll meet up with you too. When you say 120th & I-25, you thinking the Park and Ride?

I'm in the area of 112th and Sheridan, and I know the Sonic well. Didn't get my car delivered till Oct last year, so I never got over there. And when you do get back, let me know ok? I'm always up for hanging out with someone of like interests! Thanks for what you do for us over there, I know it can suck many a days (I was Air Force Security Police through the 80s and through Desert Storm).

i would avoid the park and ride at that time, it'll be a zoo, how about over the freeway by starbucks in the Castle's parking lot like we did before, 4 o clock sounds good to me.

FYI, a few are going to meet at I25/120th at 3:45-4PM then motor up to MOL.

@the Starbucks on the North-East area by the Castle Hotel. If you see room in the *$ lot, park there, if not down on the South end of the the Castle lot.


Coffee up, then drive North.

Scott, you can motor up and join us at 120th/I25 at 4pm.

We will look up and hopefully will not have to leave the MINI for service.

Guys, I'll probably need to pass on meeting at Starbucks for the run up. Saturday night my car decided to start spewing coolant somewhere around the water pump. So I'm now in need of calling Schomp first thing in the morning, damn this pisses me off. A 2010 that's 6 months old with 3600 miles...

As you read the article, Mini 5280, (they misspelled it not me) is mentioned! Free advertising!

For sure I have to pass on tonight. Car was towed in this morning to prevent any damage possibilities. Might have it done today, but more likely tomorrow. And even if it got done today, wouldn't be able to get it till close to 6pm. So my apologies.

I got off work early today, so I think I am going to head up to that direction. I will try to catch everyone meeting at 120th and I25. I'm leaving from Highlands Ranch and have no idea what to expect in terms of traffic through downtown. We'll see if I make it in time. Either way, I'll catch y'all up there.

Hey there everyone. Looking like the folks from WhiteRoof Radio will be out in May for the Grand Opening. Good to see so many MINI's in one spot tonight. And thanks to whom ever placed a Mini5280 biz card on my Clubbie.
