Our first MINI. The color of the BUCKEYE NATION ('06 Chili Red with Silver Roof and Mirrors). It's the closest he could come to the scarlet & gray of THE Ohio State University. Been members of MINICCI since August '06. Having a blast. Besides the MINI, we enjoy being out on our H-D motorcycle or our Gold Wing trike. When/If we can find any spare time and money, you can find us on Raccoon Lake. Mike & Linda

I'm trbasil, aka Tim, I'm a 30 year old factory worker, who has been a little less active in the club this year because it has been a busy year for me. I'm engaged to a wonderful woman Kat, aka Katrina, and am going to be getting married this fall (September 13th) and that has been eating up alot of my time with the planning and getting ready, and then there is the house eating up the rest of the time, this last November me and Kat bought us a house and trying to catch up on the yard work and the insides of the house have left me with not much time to be able to participate in the clubs activities.
edit: I almost forgot the important part, I have a LB/S 08 MCS Clubman named Babe (the blue ox)

I am joshuatree, (aka Josh) new to the wonderful world of MINI! I have a 04 PS/B MC named Sophia (My 10 yr old daughter named her). My wife and I bought Sophia in April of this year. I USED to be a Ford man, my dad worked there for 30 yrs. But now I can't imagine driving anything else! I am looking forward to many years of motoring, and can't wait to attend some events and make some mods.

Hi, I'm MrsZoom (Sue) and can typically be found hanging out with the Professor. Presently I'm driving his '05 DS/W MCS (Penfold) but am a soon to be owner of an '08 LiB/W MCS (Barrett). We also take turns driving little Tink when the weather cooperates and the hamsters have had enough rest.

Hey all, I know I've already posted info about Angie and I but wanted to add one more thing... I've told a few of you that I make wine as a hobby (love to make it a profession one day)! Well, I entered a wine in the Indy International Wine Competition recently and while Angie and I thought it was pretty good - so did the judges They awarded me a Bronze Medal for my effort To see a picture of the medal and the wine click www.northamericanmotoring.com/gallery/data/500/medium/00113.JPG!

I've been making wine for a number of years from kits (juice only). This time I started with a Chardonnay kit and added some grapes I've been working on in the back yard... Niagra for some dryness, and concord for sweetness, the chardonnay added some dry fruitiness Unfortunately for everyone, Angie and I enjoyed this wine so much - we drank it ;D Plus I did this wine over a year ago and just let it age both in bulk stage and bottle stage. Almost forgot about the color. If you've seen Chardonnay, it's usually light color or just a hint of gold. Niagra is another white grape when used for wine and Concord is a 'black' grape but can be made into a white wine. The trick is the skins and this is how I got the 'bronze' color to my wine - I left the skins from the concord with the wine for 1 1/2 weeks. I will keep this in mind with my next batch though

Mrs. Zoom picked up her MINI on Wednesday morning. She is happy ;D, and I am shocked at all the stuff it can do that poor Penfold just missed the boat on. I posted pictures of the delivery and drive home on my Flickr.
