CIMC-KCME Joint Drive, May 18th 11AM, Bethany MO
CIMC/KCME Joint Drive
Event for KC MINI Enthusiasts
[When] Saturday, May 18, 2013
[Time] 11:00am
[Where] 100 N 16th St, Bethany, MO
[Description]
Hosting: James Flowers (Spart).
Just a drive through the countryside - from nowhere to nowhere, but with lots of curves in between. We'll do a "fast" group for the more spirited drivers and a "slow" group for those that just want to relax and enjoy the area.
Preliminary plan is to have a short meeting on the town square in Bethany, MO to distribute maps and info, then a jaunt over to the Sonic in town for a quick lunch (make it light - hills aren't good for the stomach!) and then we'll line up in the Wal-Mart parking lot and drive at noon.
Stops will probably include Leon, IA and Lamoni, IA. Not sure where we'll finish yet!

UPDATE: Kansas City MINI Enthusiast meet-up spot: Chick-fil-A, 110 N Conistor Ln, Liberty, MO
Let's meet up at the Chick-fil-A in Liberty, just off of I-35. Meet as early as you like, hang around, get some breakfast and coffee, visit with other MINIacs. Let's plan to depart about 9am to head north.

This was a fun drive. Looks like we might be able to join again this year.
Happy to help with planning the KC to Bethany route again, or someone else can take the lead. Any scenic alternate routes to Bethany?

The Toot Toot had a buffet -- it was really good, and really fast.

Don't know yet if I can make it. My son's high school grad may take precedence.
Re: CIMC-KCME Joint Drive, May 18th 11AM, Bethany MO
Anybody looking for a more scenic (or less boring) route to Bethany, just hop on Highway 69!
Here is the flyer for this year's drive: http://www.procom-inc.com/james/2013-kc ... -flyer.pdf
I look forward to seeing everybody!

Re: CIMC-KCME Joint Drive, May 18th 11AM, Bethany MO
This is coming up soon, I'm pretty excited. I have a GoPro this time around and I'm trying to decide what to do with it... I'm thinking mount it to the roof facing rearward and do a time lapse.
If you're looking for a less boring commute to Bethany and you have some extra time in the morning, take exit 26 on I-35 for Kearney & Excelsior Springs. Turn right (east) on 92, which will meet Highway 69 just north of Excelsior Springs. Turn left (North) on Highway 69 and stay on 69 all the way to Bethany. It's more scenic and there are actual curves, but it is slower because you drive through quite a few towns. You might be able to make some of that time up if you're having fun on the rural stretches, though (I usually do.)
There are two places on this route where 69 makes a right angle turn, so you might want to look up the route in advance.

Come on guys and gals. We really had a great time on the run last year. A good time for the newbies to meet the club from up north. Saturdays weather is going to be fantastic.

Re: CIMC-KCME Joint Drive, May 18th 11AM, Bethany MO
If you find yourself a bit late or haven't RSVP'd don't worry. We'll be meeting on the town square in Bethany around 11AM, then we'll be lining up on the east end of the Wal-Mart parking lot around noon. In between we'll be lunching at Sonic or Toot-Toot, probably. All of these locations except the town square are west of the I-35 exit for Bethany (exit 92) on Highway 136. The town square is 100 N 16th St.

You don't need a Facebook account to see them, but if you do have one and you're not a member of the KCME group you should fix that!
Also, the entire drive timelapsed into five minutes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EN8wmYb_6y4
