    MITM 2012 Update #1

    A few of the fun things to do at MITM this year will be a combination of rides which will be shorter in duration and may end a destination which has a special activity.

    Our Ride Leader has been working on the rides and activities to make these more enjoyable for all.

    Also, you might have noted on the MITM registration website that our group dinner is going to be in the town of Winter Park at The Library Sports Grill and Brewery (LSGB).

    The dinner will be MITM only, we will have exclusive use of the LSGB, good food, cash bar and lots of fun.

    Come out, visit with all the friends you have made from past MITM events, make new friends and motor in the Rockies.

    The MINI only AutoX is on Friday, BMWCCA is supporting us on the AutoX and they will have a BMWCCA event on Saturday which is part of the BMWCCA AutoX Summer Series, MINIs are welcome to participate both days, but MINI only on Friday.

    Registration closes in 10 Days

    quick count shows we have 170 MINIs registered and a total of 215 people which does not include kids, dogs and day-trippers for Friday and Saturday.

    I have not checked stats this AM, but a few registered over the 4th of July.

    You have 10 days to get registered, then we are closed. WP is will honor the MITM room rates for you before and after MITM, so come up and enjoy the cool mountain air.

    Here is last weekends distribution by State, it has changed already.

    one day and a few hours

    OK, last posting on this topic. :cryin:

    You have 1 day to get a registration online at the MITM store.

    Current counts + or - a correction or two.

    223 Registered MINI Drivers, 59 Registered Passengers/Participants.

    272 total folks coming up officially.

    We have 166 in for dinner on Saturday night, fun and more fun (beer comes to mind). :wink:

    We have 38 MINIs entered in the car show for Saturday.

    We have 30 MINIs entered for the MINI only AutoX on Friday.

    Don't know how many folks are entered for the BMWCCA AutoX (Regional Points Competition) being held in the same facility at MITM on Saturday. Should be fun to watch. :fingerscrossed:

    I will post an update on Monday with some final counts perhaps. :)

    Registration for MITM is closed.

    As noted, Registration for MITM is closed.

    Rough numbers are 317 people registered for MITM.

    248 Drivers/MINIs. More will come up on day trips. With cars from our Sponsors, I expect to see 275 MINIs and Minis.

    Final counts and State totals will be posted after the powers that be work magic on the database from our website.

    Thank you all for coming out to play in the Mountains with us at MITM.

    Remember to come up and say HI, I will be in registration/check-in and walking about the area with all the other folks. :)

    Late Registration for MITM

    I am new to the Mini world ( I purchased a 2011 Mini Cooper S in May 2012) and recently, on July 27th became aware of the "Mini's in the Mountain" event.

    I saw that the registration for this event is closed as of the 15th of July.

    Can my wife and I still attend and be late registered? We really, really would like to attend and be part of this awesome event.
    Note: I have sent a message to the contacts of the event (on the web page) but have not received any confirmation that I can be a part of this awesome event.

    I/we would really like to get involved in the Mini world and think this event may be the start. (Note: I was able to reserve a room at the Zepher hotel for Friday and Saturday to get our involvement started).

    Any information or possible contacts that you can provide that would enable use to attend would be greatly appreciated.

    Respectfully,
    Ron Lantzy

    I'll second that Don. Maybe it's because of the hot summer we've had but the cool dry mountain air, cobalt-blue skies, spectacular alpine scenery, awesome roads, and great organization and execution made this an MITM to remember. Great fun from start to finish. All non-attendees will regret missing this one. Please pass on our club's collective thanks to the whole MINI5280 team.

    We did the drive up to Walden and then CO-14 through the Poudre River Canyon to start the trek home. Thrilling!
