Perhaps a Grand Junction to St. Louis then back on 70 to Denver, hummmm.

 

Sadly we're in the same boat. Looks like if you're between NC and Florida you're out of luck.:cryin:

 

I will be in Florida on vacation when the MTTS train of MINIs rolls through PA so I will miss it again.

Oh well, everyone have FUN.

 

When I did LA to Denver and back in 2010, I decided not to add up all the costs but it does get expensive (I did 14 days and 3500 miles). I would estimate $4,500 - $5,000 for SF to Boston and back (or vise versa) for two people. For 2010 MTTS, we eat breakfast at morning launch parties, had cheap lunches (usually Subway), and dinners were frequently covered by a sponsor party or we ate cheap. Hotels were the big expense. We averaged around $130 a night. Plus there are expenses for side trips/sightseeing tourist type things.

 

I do love Boston!

 

It’s official gang! Here is the route for MINI Takes the States 2014. Now Who’s ready? Remember to mark those calendars for July 26th – August 9th, 2014 and stay tuned to WRR for updates as they happen!

I wish this was a few weeks earlier. My job always has the first 2 weeks of July off.

 

might try and make Memphis.

 

OK,,,heading north during my 74th year on this planet, to Bflo., where I was born, to meet up w/other Mini owners. Looking forward to it !

I love the San Juan Mountains.

See you in July.

 

Mr & Mrs Salt are driving out to San Francisco then will travel with MTTS to Boston. We are looking forward to the adventure. It is great to be retired. We figure we will travel about 10,000 miles. Our last big trip took a year and we burned 10,100 gallons of diesel in our boat. We expect the MINI will do better than 6/10 a mile to a gallon.

 

I am going to figure out if I can make the final three stages; Buffalo, Bethlehem, and Boston. Definitely interested.

 

Don't forget to include that Lexington weekend too!

 

My wife, Sue, and I plan on driving up from So. Florida and meeting up with the group in Memphis on 8/3 and going the rest of the way to "Beantown". I know it's still early; but, if anyone's organizing a convoy or even thinking of it from GA, TN or NC, we'd like to join in. Please keep us in mind and let me know.

 

OK.

 

Grand Junction to Memphis.
