MINI Takes the States 2016

A 15 day, epic journey of MINI Coopers across the USA. The rally, sponsored by MINI USA, officially started in Atlanta GA and finished in Palm Springs CA. My trip took closer to 3 weeks as I drove a round trip, starting and finishing in Lexington KY. Can't wait to do it again!
