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!!
