Thanks all,


I had a great time cruising down to PKI with you. We wound up with a 15 MINI pack from Indy to Cincy!!

*jumping up and down* Here I am! Here I am!

This trip was very cool! It was just too cool looking in my mirrors and seeing all those MINIs behind me. We started with 6 in MN and drove to Madison. Woke up early and continued on our way. We met up with Steve and even more MINIs and pretty much doubled our original number. The drive to and from went great. No issues whatsoever. We even managed to avoid a ticket while averaging 75 or 80mph!

Thank you Cinci MINIs for the meet and greet! Any occasion to see MINIs together is a good one.

On our way to the park in the morning we had a nice line of MINIs and we were taking a left. At the same time, several MINIs were coming at us, taking a right onto the same road - THAT was too cool! I bet non-MINI drivers at the lights were wondering what the heck was going on! INVASION!

The IJ ride was sweet. The Gs that you feel climbing the parking ramp is awesome! I just wish it was longer.

The Beast was fantastic - as usual. The Son of Beast kicks your *** - literally. I thought that after a couple years it would have smoothed out a bit. Nope.

Our trip home was also great. Sad, but pretty much non eventful as far as tickets go.

Richard from Chicago - thanks for hanging with us and showing some of our group the sights of your beautiful town. Your stories at lunch were great and I hope we can get together soon!

That's Julie - she's awesome!

You do?! I'd be more than happy to take them off your hands. The scratch will feel right at home. Send me a PM with info. I'll pay for shipping and whatever.

Thanks!

I just got some of our pictures back. I'll be posting them sometime soon - kinda the same as what we've seen already, but it never hurts to see 'em again!
