Thanks!

Non-partisan, MINI ticket!

Hmmm... maybe I shouldn't say ticket and MINI in the same sentence. I received my first speeding ticket when I was 18. I didn't receive another ticket until I had my MINI a few years - and believe me, I'm not 18 any more!

We ate at the Freight House Jack Stack tonight...saw both an GP and then walked out to see a Classic PW/ Checkered Mini (w/ Moxie on the plates) and then a PW/B MINI Cooper parked right beside it...

Moxie was a beautiful Mini!

We drove Ruska around downtown tonight with the sunroof back and windows down..had several people comment to us how much they loved the car... all in all a great evening

We saw your shiny red MINI, too. Ruska is sure a pretty MINI. Moxie was loaded on the trailer for a test run, the PW beside it was Esmter and the GP was Todd's. Beautiful night for motoring!

EB/W MCS with checkerboard roof Friday 0630 hrs at Main and Moonlight in Gardner. I think I scared the driver when I waved at her. At least I made her look.

Hey - Minidave. Welcome to the club. Have you had your EB long? Your MINI looks v-e-r-y familiar.

Minidave · Post by **Minidave** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 4:26 pm

I just got it last Friday, and it looks familiar because it used to belong to dryfly......

I put up a post in the "Market" section about it today........

And thanks for the welcome, I'm looking forward to hooking up with some of you folks soon.........

Saw a green MCs on K-10 East bound green with black top, JEHU on the plate. I was right behind her but in heavy traffic I guess she didn't see me...........

Saturday evening, 8ish, Solid Gold MC Cabrio in the parking lot at the Sheraton/OP Convention Center. I love all of your chrome!

Sunday afternoon, 1ish, at the toll booth parking area on I-70, West of the Speedway, MCS Cabrio, Pepper White, black top.

Sunday evening, 6:30ish in Liberty. You were headed West on 152 near I-35. Your car looked very familiar to me--CR MCc. You were the only topless motorer I saw this weekend, I've reported the others.

Saw a really nice Black/Silver Cooper S w/ MO LINIE plates last night at Shawnee Mission Beach Volleyball.

Great combo, especially with the stripe!

..... blue cabrio (with the top down, of course) w/license plate of MINISOL, off of 51st & Roe this afternoon, and the bonus was he waved!

Saw a very nice CR/ Silver MCS on 135th Thursday...driven by a fine specimen of a human being (Wow!)

Didn't get a wave...but did get the obligatory you wish look

Such is life

Saw a PW/B with black bonnet stripes on Metcalf near Johnson Dr. while I was test driving a MC for the first time last Wednesday. I got waves from both the driver and passenger and some horn honking!

Still trying to convince the wife to let me get a MC.

I must not be doing the wave right, I mostly seem to get ignored.....

Is there a special MINI owners wave? Cause I didn't get the memo if there is.......

I think maybe they knew I was test driving and just wanted to make me think that all MC owners were nice people.

Woo hoo new owner. I wave and I don't even have one yet. LOL.

PW/B MC motoring down a side street next to the City Park
in Belleville, KS. Probably did not see me waving amongst
the other 300+ cars in the park Saturday afternoon.

But that was no excuse for the CR/B MCc, HB MCS, and IB/W MCS I
saw all motoring WB on I-70 between Salina and Topeka on Sunday morning. Not one wave.

I saw a DS/B Cooper S with liscense plates that said "Rig" on them when I was coming home from Gardner. It also had black bonnet stripes. Good lookin S.

saw an amazing original mini in parkville last weekend at the jazz and blues festival

I posted the sighting on the kch2o website with crappy camera photos

I don't know how to blur out license plate numbers, is this really a concern? if so I'll take out the photo with the number.

Still trying to find a Sparkling Silver for my wife to see. I've narrowed it down to either a Nightfire Red or a Sparkling Silver, both choices are with white top, mirrors, bonnet stripes and wheels.

I've seen the SS, but my wife hasn't and she wants some input on the color before I make the choice.

Any issues to speak of concerning white wheels? Thanks.

10955 Lowell, OP, KS 66210

8:15 am Friday, 06/29/07, LY/W MCS w/ white bonnet stripes parked in front. Saw you when I looked down from our lunch room window on the 3rd floor.

10:55 am 06/29/07 Black/Black MCS w/chrome mirror caps parked in side lot, right next to an alien green beetle. I spotted you out of my office window on the 5th floor.

Nobody probably saw me cause I was parked in the covered parking below because of the rain.
