Time to shine up your MINI and change out those winter tires.
Saturday April 17th will be our 8th annual Spring Drive!! We will again be joining up with the MilwaukeeMINIs plus the Minis In Northern Illinois (M.I.N.I.) Clubs for a fun day cruising around some Southern Wisconsin area back roads..
Chicagoland people will meet up in the Libertyville area and we will meet up with the Milwaukee Club at the Jelly Belly factory. After a break there, we will take back roads to our final destination of a late lunch in the Lake Geneva area.
Wrapup: Twenty some MINIs braved the early morning and cold weather to caravan down Sheridan Road and Lake Shore drive to the Auto Show. 40 club members were able to gain early admission to the show to get an up close and personal time to check out the MINI exhibit before the crowds. Huge thanks again to MINIUSA for all the work to secure this special deal for our club, and to Knauz MINI for helping us out with the tickets!!!
