MINIsOnTop 2006 Registration

I was at MOT Central this past weekend with no other MINI in sight–a little too early for MINIsOnTop on June 17th! But it is time for everyone to start thinking about it, as registration is now open.

MINIsOnTop is one of the biggest MINI gatherings, and an entire weekend of fun, the high point of which is ascending Mt. Washington in New Hampshire. Over 200 MINIs head up the steep and twisty Auto Road, but there are many more that participate in the day’s other activities.

20040619-184929 Even if you do not want to participate in the mountain climb in the evening, there is plenty more to do including driving and other family related activities. It’s fun for not just the drivers but any passenger as well (including pets!). People are already planning to join us from as far as Chicago and I recommend anyone within driving distance of New England take part in any capacity.

If you are interested in participating in the Mt. Washington drive, then get your registration in as quickly as possible; because of summit capacity there is a limit of about 200 cars. Last year it filled quickly and some people may have been left out of that portion.

But even if you do not want to participate in the Mt. Washington ascent, I highly encourage you to join in for the other events or even part of the day. There will be plenty of driving during the day including the curvy Kangamangus highway. You do still have to mail in a registration and pay the $6 shipping charge for the goodie bag; if for no other reason this is for liability purposes.

Please head over to minisontop.com as well as Ian’s blog for more details and the registration form. (If you are staying the night, although the T&C will be MOT central, it is already booked and you may only be able to get in on a cancellation. The backup Royalty Inn may also be full, refer to the MOT site for more alternatives)
