Iflyga Posted March 10, 2010 Report Posted March 10, 2010 No doubt, the Horizon Blue parade down the GW was a blast! I take that road every day, en route from Frederick to Alexandria. I miss the pot holes when I can, but it is tough. Hopefully the Feds will pave it again soon. "Skylar" -2009 JCW Hard Top. See my Mondo-Minis page for more.
GreenCactus Posted March 11, 2010 Author Report Posted March 11, 2010 I'm pretty sure I saw Christina-JCW yesterday on Rt 28, just south of MoS. She was heading south and I was going north, but I'm pretty sure it was her. Not too many MINIs with red wheels! I saw a MY/B Clubman this afternoon on Wisconsin Ave. Their tag was "OXON" (I think...) I didn't wave, because I was a passenger in my friend's non-MINI loaner. Last Friday, I saw a Dark Silver/Black MCS with a DCMM sticker on Calvert St and Adams Mill. I was waiting for the bus, I think it was around 11am.
JimCarhart Posted March 11, 2010 Report Posted March 11, 2010 This AM, 7:45 AM westbound 66, just before the Toll Road extension split, DS/B MCS pre-2004 Ohio plates, modified exhaust ... gave the wave, received the reply wave and a couple toots of the horn. Made my day. Good day to you sir, good day indeed. - Jim [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
carman63 Posted March 11, 2010 Report Posted March 11, 2010 I saw a few MINIs and their drivers last night. No waves - they were too busy drinking coffee

VioletDC Posted March 21, 2010 Report Posted March 21, 2010 Took babygirl 2 Potomac Yards 2day (we saw Diary of a Wimpy Kid), and tagged 2 MINIs! The 1st was a Silk Green Justa (my 1st time seeing 1!), and the next one was a 2nd Gen Dark Silver, I think ... or, whatever that goldish color is called. My granddaughter was tickled watchin' her gramma in action ... 'scuuuuze me while I kiss the sky ~ Jimi
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted March 21, 2010 Report Posted March 21, 2010 I love tagging MINI's I've been on a streak of tagging myself lately. A few weeks ago I even found the owner with the MINI and chatted about the club with them. Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman

FAST060 Posted March 23, 2010 Report Posted March 23, 2010 I saw the most unique color combo this AM. I didn't get a glimpse of the type of Cooper it was. I only noticed this little "Ketchup and Mustard" MINI in my rear view. Yes, Ketchup and Mustard! Beautiful shade of Red with two Mustard Yellow racing stripes. Soooo cute! I just wanted to take a bite out if! (I didn't have breakfast.)

carman63 Posted April 18, 2010 Report Posted April 18, 2010 Came out of Macaroni Grill. HRMinis tagged me - I suspect Dale, since I saw his car there. One good tagging deserves another. And another. 4 total
mrjasey Posted April 18, 2010 Report Posted April 18, 2010 I saw two heavily modified MINI's following each other today on Gallows Rd. in front of the metro station. One gray and the other yellow. ive seen a few modded MINIs on gallows. i work right off gallows (across from metro station) so waive if you see me. i'm in a silver with black top on rota RBs. if i see a waive, I waive back. sometimes i'm spaced out though sitting at the light and might not notice.

First, this morning inching my way thru the dreaded Robinson Terminal, I saw a black MINI; didn't get 2 wave cuz they were ahead of me and switching lanes. This evening while waiting 4 the left turn signal, a SS MINI went speeding by, and closer 2 home, I saw a HB Cabrio w/CYCL MNI on the plates! I waved and got a wave back! Made my day!
