Spring Drive – April 12th


Our annual Spring drive will be on Sunday April 12th.

WRAPUP:  A beautiful spring day brought out over 55 MINIs looking for some fun back-roads to explore.  A good sized crowd met at Full Moon and generated a bunch of interest from the motorcyclists hanging out there.. We took a short cruise up Greenbay  Road and met up with a bunch more MINIs from the Milwaukee MINIs and other area clubs at Jelly Belly in Kenosha.  We then headed out for a fun backroads cruise out to the Culvers in Elkhorn Wisconsin.  A very fun way to open up the driving season.

Big thanks to Augie, Chris + Allison, Rich, and Sue for pre-driving the route, and to Cathy + Gary for keeping me heading in the right direction during the drive 😉
