Just a super casual Saturday afternoon MINI get-together for a short drive on one of the North Shore’s nicest roads ending with a stop for a late lunch in North Chicago

Join us on our Second annual weekend drive on a multi-club event exploring some of Wisconsin’s funnest roads

Come on out to a casual meet and greet and enjoy some tasty treats and an interesting new cafe

WRAPUP: Fun morning hang out with MINI Cooper friends new and old at Grind N Gears Cafe.

It was a great chance to visit and catch up with MINI Club members.. we had a few first timers and even a couple former MINI owners who stopped by to check out the action.

Huge thanks to Grind N Gears for hosting our meetup and providing rock-star parking for our club members!
