Very cool and thanks for the email letting us know about it.

Is it too late for the early regisration @ $15?

Ashman · Member

We sent an message late last week to see if it is too late to pre-register but didn't get a response from DeDeStaud. I don't know if we should drop it in the mail this late or just pay the $20.

shwa311 · Newbie (Taking the short-cut)

thanks Ashman, I'm thinking its probably safer to just pay the $20 at the door. See you there.

Anyone from Rochester/Syracuse care to caravan to the Towne rally on Saturday? CJ

Well, my sister wants to come now, so is there anyone who has an extra person who'd like to be my navigator so that we can bring both Minis?

Lightbringer · Member

nice rims charlie....I like.

Good luck with finding a navigator...I have a co-worker who is debating on coming or not...I'll let them know you're looking for someone and tell them to check the forums here if they're interested. No guarantees though.

CharlieCroker09 · Member

thanks, on both counts :)

Lightbringer · Member

Hey, Charlie...Ran it by my friend, they convinced someone to come with them, so I guess you'll have to keep on looking. There might be people at the event that could help you out...I don't know. Never been to one myself before.

Good luck though.

Hello Everyone! (and Mike - Gr8 MINI)

I will be coming as well to the Rally and looking forward to it.
I'm a new member to this club as well but hoping to make it some of the events happening here.

I mailed my pre-registration on Sunday so hoping that makes it in time :)

Welcome ReCOOPR8 (great name!) Welcome to the Club! That MINI looks vaguely familiar--maybe we've seen you before.

Looking forward to seeing everyone Saturday!

Thanks for the reply. Just trying to help business and keep the money in WNY. I might show tomorrow but that's a fair chance at best.

Please remember JAR Trophies in the future for all your trophie and engraving needs.

Is everyone polished and ready to roll?

tedscar · Motorer

Best I can do living in the land of mud, manure, and fresh roadworks...

PepperMINI · Motorer

Good luck (and have fun!) to those participating. I just made cupcakes for my nephew's birthday party tomorrow, so I'm missing out on this one. Post pics!

tedscar · Motorer

We'll miss you & Brian. Hope the birthday party's fun.

Don't get too upset with the little shavers if they miss the pinata!

Dumpnrun · Motorer

We are all polished up and ready to hit the road in the morning. We are excited for our very first MINI event, and we are looking forward to meeting many of you tomorrow.

We had a good time and there were quite a few Chili Red MINIs and the totally adorable 1990 Mini import.

bodosom · Member

More bitty pictures of the Chili Red Brigade.

Boy, red was the color of choice today. There must have been 1/3 of the rally was red cars. I think there were 6 of ten in the first few row were red.

Hope all went well, I just stopped to see the line up and grab a cup of coffee. Maybe next time I can find a navigator.

bodosom · Member

After the Rally a select group of Chili Red/Blacks with black bonnet stripes was lounging across the street. I guess the Chili Red/White was feeling a bit shy. smile

jrbond007 · Motorer

Great Rally.
Thanks again DeDe & Towne & everyone who helped make this happen.
49 MINI's & 1 Mini. Fantastic turn out.

Thanks to the long distance travelers also. From Ohio, PA & Ontario

More pics

And finally, two shots of the line-up taken from about half-way down and from the beginning. This was before they doubled up the front.

Charva · Motorist

Sorry I couldn't be there but my poor back has been killin' me the last few days and the heated seats don't even help much....

Poor me.....(insert pity party here)

To everyone who attended this year's rally and birthday bash,

Thank you all for taking a Saturday morning and afternoon out of your busy schedule to attend our 7th annual MINI Road Rally. MINI Club of WNY hosts the Road Rally every year and love to see you all there.

We had a total of 50, WOW!!!!!! MINIs. That surely is a record. It was a great day for a drive and it could not have happened if not for everyone who attended. They came from far and near. AMAZING!!!!

It will take a little while to compile all the info. so MINI Club of WNY asks that you be patient when looking for the stats on the web.

It was truly a success and we hope that you will be attending the:
