Enjoy a fall drive with MINI friends on some fun roads, ending with a bring-your-own picnic lunch at the Volo Bog!!

NOTE: we are beta testing a new phone routing application called Rallista. Download the App (for IOS and I think for Android) and search for a drive called “CMMC Volo Bog Drive” for turn by turn instructions. Thanks to Mark H. for finding this app and mapping the route.

WRAPUP: A really fun Superdawg drive!! We had over 30 cars looping thru a bunch of cul-de-sacs and joined up with another 8 or 10 at Superdawg. A bunch of new club members participated in their first drive as well as a lot of old friends.. Thanks everyone for the evening hangout!

Cesar from Endless Possibilities Auto has invited the Chicago MINI Motoring Club to attend a Cars & Coffee morning hangout at his shop in Aurora..

A fun first drive of the season. We had a huge turnout of close to 40 cars between the Chicago MINI Motoring Club and Milwaukee MINIs.. Many first-timers and plenty of old MINI friends. The day started out really hot, but temps cooled down a bit after a passing storm.

We had a few routing issues due to construction road closures, but we made the best of things and eventually got to our destination.

We enjoyed some good food and custard at Hefner’s Frozen Custard, who did an outstanding job of dealing with our large crowd dropping in on them.

Huge thanks to Northshore Motorsports for hosting our starting location and to Hefner’s Frozen Custard for accommodating our large crowd on short notice!!

WRAPUP: We had a great turnout of 15 or so MINIs to stop by and visit and have a chance to say so long to Mr. RCH. The weather was very hot, but the predicted rains held off. It was really nice to see so many MINI friends after being away for so long!!

Longtime club member Mr. RCH will be leaving Chicagoland and moving back to the East coast. We will have a casual drop-in get-together to have a chance to say goodby before he leaves.

This is not a club event, but passing along information about a Birthday Parade in Grayslake on Sunday 5/17
