All the hype in the Mini community right now is centered around the upcoming even in Las Vegas called AMVIV. It’s truly going to be an epic March in Vegas. I am so looking forward to my first AMVIV. After that event comes The Dragon, then MITMs.
This year the Mini In The Mountains (MITMS) team [...]
With inspiration from a SEMA mate I am finally getting around to editing my GoPro HD videos from the drive back to Denver. Soon I’ll post the link to my ride through Glenwood Canyon.

Stuffing ourselves has become a tradition…and so should be the Post Turkey Day Run with Mini5280.
Today Jacob, my oldest son, and I had the pleasure of running through Denver today with about 10-12 other Minis. We started out at the old Detailer’s Paradise location on South Broadway. The group started by working our way through [...]
Tonight I’m prepping the blog and some photo galleries for next weeks SEMA show coverage. Many of you know, I was the owner of an internet based off road parts company. During those 8 years I could never find the time to make it to SEMA. This year is different. I [...]
I’m sure that’s what it looks like, on the side of I-25 near Loveland. Too bad it didn’t look like that when the lady in front of me drove by it. Three cars in front of her saw it. Oh…but she was busy talking to someone on her cell phone. Yeah, she wound that thing [...]
Had a great morning at the Mini of Loveland groundbreaking while also celebrating 50 years of the Mini. An excellent turnout with over 30 Minis present. I even managed to get an interview in with the local press. I’m really looking forward to having a dealership so much closer. Schomp has been great, but location [...]
I’d like to embellish my faithful readers with a story. Some of you may know I owned an off-road, 4×4 parts business a few years ago. I am still active in the 4×4 industry, some of my old friends might argue that, but I try to keep up on what’s going on. I still have [...]
My first Podcast interview…and I’m still not famous.
@ minute 16:58 WhiteRoofRadio
In my haste to update last night before getting some shut eye, I forgot to mention the true thrill of the day. Todd, from the infamous Podcast WhiteRoofRadio<iTunes Link> and MotoringBadges.com got an interview with me.
<insert tongue in cheek>
It took a lot of hard work on Todd’s part, getting through my people, setting up a time, [...]
The 3rd day started off with a quick run down to the car wash. While driving the two blocks I glanced down at the outside temperature gauge on the Mini, it read 36 degrees. I thought about just going for coffee, but my Clubman was pretty dirty. I decided to give the car wash a [...]
Minis In The Mountains starts today. This is the 4th year in Copper Mountain and my 2nd year attending. I go because I enjoy meeting new people and hanging out. I’ve made some good friends at these types of things.
I must say that it’s getting pretty expensive. However, I like that they allow [...]
