I'm in NE Ohio, near Akron. There are a number of MINI's in Kent, OH, but otherwise we see very few. Thanks. JS

Just a reminder to all the Illinois and Wisconsin MINIs, that there is a drive/tailgate party/ Brewers vs Cubs Baseball Rally. The date and place is, Sunday Sept, 7th at Miller Park in Milwaukee. Groups of MINIs from the Madison, and Milwaukee areas will meet up with the Chicago area MINIs for a (huge) MINI tailgate party and the game.
Tickets for about 10 MINIs are still available thru ron@chicagominiclub.com
If your MINI is lonely for the company of other MINIs this is the perfect event. So far about 40 MINIs have signed up for the days events!

While I don't own a MINI (yet!) it isn't unusual for me to see a couple or three of 'em as I tool around Ann Arbor. Am I catching sight of any forum members in their "babies"?

P.S. I'm also interested in the buying experience anyone had at Motor City MINI (Eastpointe, MI).

Sorry to get your hopes up, but if no one has contacted you maybe you should start a local club?

My Indi Mini just arrived in New Jersey! I'm counting down the days until it gets to Cincinnati!

I'm so excited about my car, I can hardly stand the wait. I'm hoping it will get here before my birthday on December 17th!!

Does anyone know about a Cincinnati / Ohio/Kentucky/Indiana car club? I know as soon as I pick up the car, I'm going to want to drive it all over the place!

AprilWhine · Dec 9th, 2003, 08:24 AM

Hi and welcome! I'm sorry but I don't know of any local clubs in your area. Not to say there aren't any, just that I don't know.

anmaka... welcome! Enjoy your new MINI... and just in time for the holidays! ...

Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana all have active MINI Clubs. There are at least three clubs here in Ohio, one in the Cincinnati/Ky area, one near Columbus (Mid-Ohio), and one in Northeast Ohio (MiniNEO). I will find websites or e-mail addresses and send you a PM. Meanwhile, I believe all these clubs have a presence here on MINI2.

One of them might be me! Chili Red w/ White roof and we've been all over Ann Arbor.

You'll probably have to be part of that shameful Cincinnatti group.

Hi and Welcome TMini! Sorry I don't know of any groups in the twin cities area, but maybe someone will contact you.

Another St Paul-ite here. White Bear Lake to be more specific.

I'm thinking about taking the Intro to Autocross class at Dunwoody, middle of April (I think 17th and 18th?). Even though my MCS might not be delivered by then. Somehow autoxing a Toyota Cressida sounds sort of wrong, but I figure I have to just dive in and see what it's about

AprilWhine · Mar 9th, 2004, 08:56 AM

Great sig, Puck!

Can't believe I haven't posted on this thread yet...

Appleton, Wisconsin here (30 miles south of Green Bay, 100 miles north of Milwaukee)...I'd love to know of any reasonably local events.

ernesto · Jun 11th, 2004, 02:36 AM

Thrilhouse (and everyone else of course),

The Chicago MINI Motoring Club will be hosting a large drive to a Milwaukee Brewers game on Sunday August 15th.

Last year we had about 60 cars meet up and tailgate before the game. This year should be even larger.

All the info is Here

100 miles sounds like the perfect distance for a nice drive!

thrilhouse · Jun 11th, 2004, 05:28 AM

That sounds like a blast...and I think I may already be in the Chicago area on August 14 for my fiancee's birthday!
