I keep going back to the significance of numbers… In various communities different numbers have different meanings. If you are a car enthusiast, 129=318/11. I know the math doesn’t actually work out but this isn’t math class so let me explain. US 129 between North Carolina and Tennessee (the Tail of the Dragon) is a stretch of road that is on the bucket list for most motorcyclists and car people. 318 turns in 11 miles. For me, it is exhausting and after doing it I need to take a break. During the first weekend in May MINI owners descend on this area and drive, and drive, and drive, drive, drive, drive. They also socialize, but their are drives all over the area on some beautiful roads to some great destinations.
You can find MINIon #129 around this road, helping people out… teaching them how to buzz around the corners and not cross the double yellow lines. While just a worker bee, MINIon #0129’s mission it get people to understand the joy of MINI ownership, the MINI Community, and safe driving on the Tail of the Dragon. Thanks to his positive attitude The MINI community is a better place, with happier people.
