ErinKC Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 I'm camping the whole way across and the two weeks on MTTS. I'm planning on leaving Cape May July 20th picking up Sun (Bitchin MINI) in Va and making our way on a Northern Route looking for Weird Americana on the way to San Fran. There may or may not be a detour to Vegas for a night If any one wants to know what campsites I have and wants to tag along feel free to join the caravan!

mbabischkin Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Cleveland Rocks people! The whole family will be joining in Cleveland and doing the legs to Buffalo and PA... We'll be running with the MINI and the Tiguan - so we can pitch in a support vehicle if somebody needs a little extra room... I'll be headed to Cleveland the weekend before the MTTS circus arrives and both vehicles will be coming to the DC area straight from PA...

He'll probably break is 100k on the trip if not before. Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carman63 Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 I've finally booked the 'Official' route (i.e., west to east coast) finally. Waiting for Jennifer to determine her route east to west, so we can book hotels. I'm flying out and will meet her at the SF hotel. -Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fassbender Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Hi there - I'm traveling East to West starting July 19 (maybe leaving the 18th). I'm taking the northern route to hit some states I haven't seen. Curious if anyone else is taking a similar route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agranger Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) If anyone wants to ship their MINI west and fly out, send me a PM. I live about 12 minutes from the SFO airport (San Francisco) and would be happy to act as a receiver for the car and pick you up when your plane lands. PS: If you need a reference (that I'm just not some nut saying 'send me your car'), talk to Haemish. PPS: send me a message... I don't check this board that often.

Poison Ivy Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Can I just say I think it's so cool that Sunshine MINIs created MINIs Take Florida? I think it would be cool to team up with HR MINIs and RVA MINIs to do a sort of MINIs Take Virginia next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bert Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 It all depends on the route from east to west that MINI USA maps out for 2016. Since it will begin on the east coast in 2016, if they follow form, that should not be too hard to plan.

GreenCactus Posted July 17, 2014 Report Share Posted July 17, 2014 It looks there are a few people who are ending their trip in Bethlehem, PA. That's the only stop we're doing and since it's on a Friday, if people want to stick around for an extra day I can put some things together. I was thinking a winery during the day... http://www.galenglen.com/ We've been here several times and it's very good (and very reasonable)> In the evening (weather permitting) we could go to the racetrack. It's an interesting experience. :laugh: http://www.mahoningvalley-speedway.com/ If there's interest I can create a separate event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark and I are staying in a fancy pants hotel with reservations at the fancy pants restaurant in Lancaster that night but could join up for the winery.

Bert Posted July 17, 2014 Report Share Posted July 17, 2014 A great idea but we are heading to lunch in Lancaster after the Rise n Shine and then need to get home. We will have been on the road 12 days and need to recover for work on Monday. :banghead: Ernie McStreet's facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/erniemcs.street Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 Seeing all of the posts and pics on MTTS is killing me.
