MINI Rallies are open to all MINI and Classic Mini Owners!
Winter is in full force and the upper elevations in Ruidoso NM have received lots of snow this season. We plan on venturing up to Ski Apache and the the area around it for some snow play! If you ski/snowboard, a group will be heading up to the Ski Resort. Another group will be hitting the tubing park that is on the road to Ski Apache.
