MINIs on the Dragon 2007

MINIs on the Dragon (MOTD) is an annual gathering of MINI Cooper enthusiasts from across the country. MOTD, which takes place in Deals Gap, North Carolina, is named after "Tail of the Dragon," considered one of the world's best motorcycle and sports car roads. This year's MOTD (May 3-6, 2007) was the 5th, but my first. I drove with a group of several other MINI drivers from the Denver area. Our route to "The Dragon" was on backroads instead of interstate highways, where possible and practical, taking five days instead of two. The event lasted four days, but we left early on the last day, returning to Denver in two days using the interstate highways.
