Welcome - come drive with us

Welcome to the latest new MINI owners, Jhondeaux and Coldstream.

It appears a couple nice new MINIs have found owners, get involved with MINI5280 club if and when you have time.

Post up some pictures, join us on a drive, remember MITM in August.

As was mentioned in May, some major events (MOTD in NC and MOB in MO), very fun events.

MTTS (MINI TAKES THE STATES) will be passing and stopping in Denver in July, really not to be missed, if you have the time.

Welcome again, check us out at an event, join the club, drive with us.

Next one, March 11, a really fun drive and lunch.

Don

Couple of pics

Thanks for the welcome, looking forward to this weekend's ride.

Our car is just pretty basic, at least right now, but I'm looking forward to making a few tweaks to it that'll give it even more personality than it already has.

Welcome,

It is great to see a lot of the Colorado Springs owners on the forum, join MINI5280 here and on FB, etc.

We always like to see new PW MINIs and Countryman. Remember to try out the Buena Vista drive on the 21st. Saturday.

Did SOCOM want to meet us up in BV?

I'm not sure how many people from SOCOM are going. I'll ask on our facebook page to try to get a count. I will be out of town during that time unfortunately. Sounds like fun.

Welcome, yes with 2 you should become a MINI5280 member.

Is that a special edition R57? Nice color and stripes.

We will be at Sonic on Wednesday, come say HI if you can.

Thanks for the welcome Don!!

It's not a special edition, but she decked it out with the MINI Yours package and the Laguna Green color.

Saw the Sonic tagup, but unfortunately won't be able to make it. Hope to try and make a weekend outing! Where do I go to member up?

I like the laguna green, very nice.

You can go to mini5280.org and sign up via paypal using a credit card or your paypal account.

You will get a welcome kit in a couple of weeks when our Secretary gets notified, some nice little items to say hello and thank you.

Enjoy, see you on a ride or two, perhaps MTTS and for sure come up to MITM in August.

If you Facebook, like our page.

Hello All,
Being stationed back to Denver (Aurora will be home as I am retiring in the next few years) in July and will happily bring my '10 R55S with me. Picked her up at the end of March, 2010 in Wiesbaden, Germany. Her name is Germarican. All mods are posted to my signature. Hoping to join in as many events as possible, no matter how large or small they might be. I look forward to joing the club..... And, of course, if Mini decides to release the R60 SD, I will def. bring that baby to the family.....

Welcome Germarican, join us in June when you get settled.

We can wish the R60 SD would be release here, not going to hold my breath.

Nice Clubman, post a picture or two.

Don

Your welcome, no Chuck left the lead role a few years back, I became Prez. in January, each Prez. serves 2 years and cannot run again, per our by-laws.

All of our past Presidents have given and still give a lot of time to MINI5280.

Btw, Chuck is around, active with club events and helping with MITM.

See you out on a ride or two and I hope at MITM in August or MTTS before in July.

Don

HI everyone,

I ordered my CM about a month ago and it's due to be delivered in a couple of weeks. Yippee! I've been lurking for a while and thought I'd say hi. I can't wait to join you guys for a get together.
