Getting Ready for the Drive



Well, here we go again with our trip from Victoria BC to the this years Mini Meet. We are headed to Winona, Minnesota, and this year I have a new mini, as I have sold the Moke. I will be drving a 1989 Rover Mini from Japan, that has been modified to have a Honda VTEC engine and transmission. Here are a few shots of the car as I am finishing it up in time for the trip. Rog is coming over from the UK and joining us again on the trip. It should be great fun as we travel along through the US seeing everything that we can..of course all the world's best and biggest stuff along the way!

Hi Mike,

Having just come back from Majorca (Spain)I have been topping up my sun tan already for the trip.I am looking forwards to the worlds biggest breakfast if I can spot that cafe again but I am sure they will have the worlds biggest sine so I should not miss it.I trust the engine testing is going ok.Just over two weeks till the London to Brighton Run so I should start polishing the Mini.

Happy Mini-ing Rog "The Hat"
