New Hampshire Mini Meets? Anyone interested?
Well we were just talking about hooking him up with a saddle so i figured the picture was appropriate. 
He can at least pull a sled if he's not wearing a saddle. Just like the basset hound owner, i won't get too far before he decides he's pooped.

A "quick" update from me as we get closer to the Holidays -
I don't plan on getting to any meets within the next couple weeks, as my holiday schedule, unlike my wallet, is packed. I love getting together, but need to put funding where it counts during these next few weeks.
I will be working with a few of you in the near future - to rig up an actual, planned "outing calendar" for the entirety of next years driving season. I personally hope that it will entice new members, as they would be able to plan with more advanced notice. Don't get me wrong, I like you guys a lot, but I'd really like to see more, new members. It's why I got this thing rolling in the first place. Giving people an excuse and an outlet to get to know their cars and other enthusiasts within their extended communities. I just haven't done a good enough job advertising us.
Dan - I know it's a busy time for everyone, but can we set up some kind of meet, chat, Skype, etc. to talk about cards, stickers, clings, etc.? If not, no worries. I can take care of it. Just let me know.
Everyone else - Please think about the things you've done in your MINI (I don't want to hear about baby-making...) - trips you've taken, places you've seen, people you've met, etc. Let me know what the really good ones were, what we can change from this last year, what we need to keep, where you think we can/could go, etc.
We will be expanding - both in members and in trip length. If we get to go on some weekend day-drives, I think that's proof we've done our homework. We are MINIs of New Hampshire, not MINIs of Hillsborough and Merrimack counties. There are great places in this state to visit. We just need to properly plan to have a chance of getting people there.

im still noob status here and have yet to meet anyone, due to my lame work schedule, but there is a great local guy out of Milford that does vinyl die-cut decals and car wraps that a buddy of mine recommends. from what i understand he is very good and cheap too! they are part of the VW scene in the area.

Scott, How about adding the chassis codes to the models when members are signing up? And adding R53 JCW GP, R56 JCW GP, and R61 Paceman models? Oh and engine codes? I have a list somewhere here at work that I put together awhile ago.
