We had a great time at the MTTS event in Boston! Great weather, tons of people from all over the country, music, food, drinks, etc... The event didn't have parking but provided shuttle services for the guests.

We passed it on our way to see the 9/11 Memorial. What an amazing memorial. Such an emotional sight to see.

I've been there too. We were at the dealership during the day on New Years Eve a few years back. The wife was cold, so we toured through the Mini portion, the BMW cars and Bikes too.

Plus the 9/11 memorial is awesome as well. NYC is a blast all together. Im glad my sister-in-law lives in the city = free place to stay.

Warning to all NH MINI drivers!! The leafpeapers are on the way!!
Your mission should you choose to accept it is to avoid this dangerous creature which can end a MINI'S life in an instant!!
This creature motors around....looking everywhere but the road around them!! Please ensure your stock horns work....or better yet upgrade to a airhorn!!
Every year we seem to hear of a few mini owners who live locally who's cars get crunched...poor mini's!!!
Just know....we drive small, easily missed cars that folks easily miss...so be careful!!! Be ready to dive, dodge and weave....and liberal use of the horn to wake folks up!!!
Good luck!!

Too Funny. Having lived in NH for 46 of my 57 years, I can relate to the trials and tribulations of the "leaf peepers" and why you pretty much stay off the roads - especially on the weekends. The best course of action is to take your Mini on a paid vacation day - say a "hump day" - and tour the Kancamagus Highway and other points around the state. It's not to be missed. And I can imagine driving that road in a Mini is much more satisfying that it was in my mom and dad's Vista Cruiser. Drive with your headlights or driving lights on and it helps. But even if you drive a suburban, it's guaranteed that someone with out-of-state plates will be gawking at that batch of red maple trees about the time they realize they're going to eat your rear license plate!!!

Be safe - but enjoy! And come and spend your money since we don't have sales taxes here and we have liquor stores right on the highway! We welcome "flatlanders" here this time of year for that purpose!

cheers - andy

So I had a ton of weight in the back of the mini today. I got a good look of a squashed stance. Hmmmmmm... I now want to lower my ride.

If I can pull myself away from spending money on my blazer I would jump on some springs. I've been so focused on playing around with the blazer I've lost interest in tinkering with the mini.
