St. Louis recap

Finally I found some time to post some pics from my St. Louis trip last weekend. The St. Louis MINI club invited the KC MINI club to join them for their third annual Winery Run to the Balducci winery in Agusta, MO. About 50 MINIs showed up for an absolutely awesome drive full of twists and turns through the hills of eastern Missouri.

A lot of extremely cool MINIs were present including the Killer Bee owned by Mick who’s an instructor for the Phil Wicks MINI Driving Academy. I got to drive under the tutelage of Mick last year when the Phil Wicks Ultimate MINI Driving Academy came to Heartland Park Topeka. One of the things I remember most about what he taught me was to always be looking farther ahead of where I was used to looking while driving. Great tip by the way. Anyway, Mick has a new tricked out Cooper S convertible.

The Red Bull MINI was also present. I’d never seen this car up close and it was very cool albeit a little over the top but hey, it’s Red Bull. It’s supposed to be over the top.

I’ll be posting later about the goings on over at White Roof Radio.
