It starts

And so its begun. Team GB has started the Mini Takes the States adventure with a preview event at MINI of San Francisco.

And what an event they put on. A bar, DJ, Tony Hawk, canapés doing the rounds and of course hundreds of miniacs! Thanks to my ride for the trip Tryon, I got to meet some very cool people, including the US distributor for Duell AG and the president of Duell AG himself.

Morris and his Mersey Mini Club compatriot Crocker got spotted too, with some people easily recognising us thanks to their adventures on Facebook.  

Of course before all that we had a day in San Francisco to contend with. Morris dragged Christine, Ali and Tryon off to Alcatraz while I saw some sights, including the F56 of the guys from MINI goes all around, who are in the middle of their round the world adventure from Germany and back to Germany.


 Tomorrow sees the road trip begin, and it's off to Reno. Where there will be a MINI wedding to attend too. Its all go!

Until next time,
Phil
