Congrats on your new Roadster.

 

Chili Red justa-Roadsters...it just doesn't get any better.

Congrats!

 

+1 on that. Other then top down at the dragon.

 

Been there, done that (but STILL haven't chosen/bought the pictures!)

 

This thread's been a little slow lately, therefore let me do my part. Just a subset of our crop of local Iowa R59s...

 

Looks like a reunion of Chili Red r59's, right? Guess my Pepper White with Chili Red stripe doesn't qualify! Just kidding. Where was this picture taken?

 

Our roadster got a brother.

 

Holy Cross Festival in Holy Cross, just yesterday. All of our CRs present and accounted for. We have seven Roadsters total in our group now (even a PW ).

 

Congrats! Didn't realized they changed the grill design. Big improvement, IMHO.

 

Roadster contingent at MINIs on Top in June:

 

Now that's a roadster party

 

At home just before leaving to go up to New Hampshire:

 

And here we are at an annual local MINI barbecue at Monadnock Berry Farm.

 

sleeping out

 

Wow major construction going on there, new stone retention walls right there.

 

Pretty much...
Sadly, it doesn't leave a lot of money for all the fun stuff I wanted to get for the MINI.

 

Lots of fun times at MINIs in Foliage. Here we are on the ferry from Fort Ticonderoga to Vermont.

 

I know that place! we where there in July. A little more north crossing at Essex passing through from Lake Placide to the white mountain.

We had an awesome time crossing the lake near sunset time.
Great you could be there as well nice lake!!! better than Erie and Ontario.

 

Ferry pics.

 

I swear I could take a ferry everyday to work and that would make my driving to work a tone more bearable

 

After a 10-day, 2,400 mile MINI adventure to the Appalachians, there is really only one way to get those wheels acceptably clean again...

 

ha ha . . . yes indeed
I hope you took the opportunity to clean those brakes while you were at it.

 

Might as well have asked me if I have any Grey Poupon...

[...the answer? "But, of course." ]

 

Had some morning sunshine for the 1st day of December, so I used a few minutes of it to clean out under the spoiler. That little compartment is a dust magnet. Temperature was a balmy 33 degrees.

First time I've actually deployed the wing manually.

 

lol, I have mine up all the time to wash under it. make sure the drains dont clog up with leaves and needles, just clean the traps. If you get good a stop light you can wave with your rear wing to the people behind you.
