Chicagoland MINI spottings!
#1951
i just got back from Eagle River, Wisconsin where i was so impressed and excited to see a PW/B MC headed SB on 45...
i was in the S4, so no wave... but, i did yelp out "MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINI!!!"
you're hard pressed to see imports up there. brought The Chap up in the summer and was given the strangest looks!

No, I did not spot any MINIs today, I just wanted to post that I drove my car today!!! For all you folks that think it is not driven in winter are wrong. It was cold but dry and all the rain has gotten most of the salt off the roads. I went through the high speed S on Jericho that some of you may remember from the BBQ drive and then down Clark also from the BBQ drive.
Tomorrow the car will be moved from the garage to the shop so I can start getting it ready for the trade show the weekend of the 19th!

Yes, I am sure you have more miles on the bike than I have on the MINI. I also drove mine on Christmas day. One time in December and hopefully more than one time this month too!

See a ton around the Schaumburg area (might help there's a dealership there), too many to note. For some reason always seem to see at least one at the Barnes and Noble on Golf Rd. One time, when I was in the parking lot, one left and another came in at the same time, like there had to be one and it was coming in to replace it. Okay, maybe that's stretching it, but yeah

I followed an 02-04 Black MCS with white roof, white wheels, white door stripe, and aftermarket exhaust for a few miles on 290 west about 8:30 this morning.
