MADMEN of Tucson Odometer-Where we went in April
MADMEN odometers racked up lots of mileage in April.
MINI of Tucson held their grand opening with a Wild West theme that took us from the top of A Mountain for the views to Old Tucson for a gunfight and to the new dealership for barbecue, drinks, music, conversation and, oh yeah, lots of new MINIs to drool over.
My MINI Has the Munchies was also at a new location- the new Taco Tote. And we were joined by new members.
My MINI and a few of his friends then made the 11 day, 3500 mile trip to Memphis. We traveled on interstates, city streets and one lane roads. My MINI saw lots of things- the Eiffel Tower in Paris, TX; beautiful and elaborate county courthouses; mini horses; Vicksburg National Military Park; the music recording studios and museums of Sun and Stax in Memphis; a car show on Beale Street and of course, Graceland. We’re pretty sure we saw Ol’ Scratch himself at the highway 61 and 49 crossroads but based upon the singing in my MINI after that sighting no souls were sold. We also had an “incident” in Cooper, TX, and I swear no bail money was really needed. Food is always a priority with this group and we accomplished our goal of barbecue and Cajun.
Last Saturday of the Month was at Rincon Market for those not lucky enough to be on the road home from Memphis.
May is also going to be an exciting month. The annual meeting was held May 4 at Grimaldi’s in Chandler. Elections are now open for DMC positions, keep an eye on the DMC forum.
The MADMEN will be at U-Like Asian Buffet for Munchies on May 9.
We’ve been invited to attend a Wine Tasting and Car Show on May 11 with the Tucson British Car Registery.
Last Saturday of the Month Breakfast, May 25, will be after the Phantom Car Show that we also do in conjunction with the TBCR- hang out, look at our cars and then breakfast at Mimi’s. Check the Club Events page on the forum for all the info.
