ColoradoRick  > Cars > Run to the Western Slope
MINI5280 members headed to the western portion of Colorado for a weekend of winery touring, monument visiting and museum viewing. The highlight of the trip was a visit to Colorado Gateway Auto Museum, in Gateway, Colorado, where the one and only F-88 concept car is housed. Gateway is about 1 hour southwest of Grand Junction. The Colorado National Monument is next to Grand Junction, as is Palisade, the center of Colorado-grown wines!
