Hi All,

I just wanted to let you all know I'm planning another big MINI Adventure for June 2007. There are a lot of details to plan yet, but I wondered if any of our Belgian friends wanted to come and spend a few days with us in the Alps?

Full details of the run are on mini2.com here

If you want some background info on our previous trips have a look at http://www.miniturismo.co.uk, and in particular this page where we met up with a few of you in Rekkem in 2005.

Let me know if you have any questions, and if you'd like to join us come over and say hi on the mini2.com thread.

Cheers
Stuart

Hi Nathalie, I hope you can make it - it would be great to have a whole group of MINIACS with us in the Alps.

Hi Stuart,

Welcome back on the continent (and mini2.be). Your dolomite trip sounds great man, maybe we can join for a few days?
Just don 't forget to plan a stop in Flanders for a great "cote ? l' ?s".

Greetz,

Jan

Hi Jan, It will have been 2 years since my last cote ? l' ?s, so I guess I'll be ready for another one

Hi Stuart!

That's nice!!

Probably there are some more MINI-enthousiasts from The Netherlands interested in this great trip.

Thanks for the heads-up Arjan. I'll post a thread over on that forum too

It sounds like a great adventure, I'll think about it :roll:

wigley · Berichtdoor **wigley** » Vr Okt 20, 2006 10:18

The full route is now available online: http://www.miniturismo.co.uk/2007

!nathalie! · Berichtdoor **!nathalie!** » Vr Okt 20, 2006 19:17

Is here someone who wants to join me or who needs a co-pilot?
I'm very interested in this nice challenge but looking for company because it will be hard driving and searching for the road at the same time.
So anyone who really wants to do this, please let me know by PM and we will talk about it.

Hi nathalie, You are right it will be hard without a navigator to help, but thats all part of the fun :twisted:

If you have good satellite navigation, I think you'll also be ok.

As a last resort we'll all look after you

!nathalie! · Berichtdoor **!nathalie!** » Za Dec 30, 2006 14:41

Well is here no one from the MINIacs or MINI2.be who wants to join?
I'm in for it for 90% but still doubting :-k

I'm looking for my holidays to plan in 2007 :grin:

wigley · Berichtdoor **wigley** » Za Dec 30, 2006 16:18

The trip is 100% going ahead. Some of us have booked our ferries already

I hope we'll some members from mini2.be and miniacs

Berichtdoor **Morty** » Za Dec 30, 2006 19:54

I can't tell now. I need to check if I can get leave from work.
And it's also so awfully close to MINI United (the week after)

I'll have to check.

Hi Morty, I hope all is well

We have 5 confirmed cars coming from the UK and hopefully some more to add soon. It will be good to get some Belgian and Dutch MINIs along as well. And then maybe some Swiss MINIs, French MINIs, Italian MINIs :grin:

!nathalie! · Berichtdoor **!nathalie!** » Do Jan 18, 2007 22:49

Ik en mijn nav gaan mee. Hotels worden waarschijnlijk een van dees geboekt volgens Wigley. Ik zie er al naar uit.

Awel Nathalie, je hebt de juiste beslissing genomen

Zo hebben we een ervaren challenge driver voor de Provence :grin:

Ben in feite wat jaloers :oops:
