After lunch is open for you to enjoy the afternoon on your own. Some will head back the same route to enjoy Peak to Peak.

Others might want to head down 72 towards Boulder, Flatirons or Colorado Mills for some shopping.

I think I will head toward Nederland then maybe down towards Boulder for a bit more of the twisties.

Bring your appetite, food is good at the Wonder Vu Cafe. link to WonderVU Cafe.

Missed it by "that" much. I was on my way out the door and got a phone call. An hour later I missed the ride. Hope you all have a great time.

We had a great time, Jamie, thanks so much for putting it together.

It was our first one, and we had a blast seeing the cars, meeting the people, and taking those turns.

We lost a couple of folks along the way (including) us, and we really appreciate the rest of the crew waiting for us while we got found.

Thanks again, it was a great time.

Tom and Jackie (Jacque) Great sets of pictures, Tom a couple of your pictures on the road should be in the ride article.

My chief photo taker, got hungry and tired at the beginning of Peak to Peak, so a limited set of mine and Pat's. Oh, Jacque, I stole the picture of the Countryman, excellent. Sending it to Pat so she can wallpaper it at the office.

As with with every trip I enjoyed the drive. Comet continues to amaze me with the way it handles curves. I especially want to thank Chris for baby sitting me as I kept getting lost. Also, anyone else who kept track of me.

MINI5280 Rocks!

I was going to join up, seeing as I live 5 minutes from the starting point, but my iPhone decided it didn't like DST sometime between 3:00am and 8:30am.

Great time everyone, thanks again Jamie..

Sorry I missed lunch but Wandervu parking lot and access are always a little tricky and alot dirty..

Happy to oblige as sweeper, neat to see all the MINI's cookin through the twisties, don't think we lost anyone on purpose.. Nice to have met the newcomers, hope we see you again on another ride.

Onward & Upward,

Chris
