Our “Third Sundays” Adventure took us from El Paso to Las Cruces, Hatch NM and a quick run up to Hillsboro. There were 16 MINIs in all. It was great to see everyone again and we’re always happy to have our buddies from LC join us. Here’s a few pics from the day.

With the help of the El Paso Fire Department, A few Texas State Troopers and a couple extra cars from MINI of El Paso, we got Santa to his destination! Santa was able to help nearly 300 kids this morning! Thanks to all who donated and thanks to everyone that came out today!

The Rally from Cloudcroft to Timberon 9/30/12
The lack of pictures posted today was on account of the old philosophy of “Buckle up and Hold on, this is going to be Epic!” There was no room for error today as we hit some serious twisties and RPM’s! The skies were clear, the roads were smooth and our MINI’s couldn’t have done a better job. Hope everyone had a good time and again, thanks to Joel for routing and Corrina for letting Joel take her MINI out on another Adventure!
If you missed it, well, there’s always next time!
