The Mini 50 - Day 2
Friday

Friday morning started once again with a drivers meeting. This time it was lead by Donna Kimble, our cruise master for the day. She started the route directly into the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It was a beautiful cruise with, you guessed it, a lot of twisty mountain roads!

We invaded a small town for lunch and then headed towards the Gap, to go down it this time. Just after lunch, another Mini made it onto the trailer, and while driving on Hell Bender, one more Mini spun! For those that haven't been on Hell Bender while trying to stay up with Donna, it's an E ticket ride! For many, it's better than the Gap, just don't tell everybody or it will grow into a cute logo, someone will open up a T-shirt stand, and there will hundreds of cars on it. While we were there, a guy came on his motorcycle and left in an rescue helicopter.
