Off-Road Expo in April

ca.offroadexpo.com/orepomona/v42/index.cvn

It's a fun show. Lots of big trucks, huge tires, tube buggies, Jeeps, motorcycles, quads, side-by-sides, a Diesel dyno, aftermarket parts galore for all of them, BBQ and beer.

Last October they had guys jumping from one ramp to another on motorcycles.
There were pretty young ladies keeping us abreast of new products.
A rock wall competition for buggies. Lotsa different stuff.

Bad joke. I meant that since I'm so poor all I could do was look and cry on their parts counters since I couldn't afford any of the great toys they have at those shows.

I might still try and make the show however. I do like checking out the latest and greatest stuff for my rig.

Ah to be funny again.

I don't buy much at the show. They really don't have any swingin' deals on much, with the possible exception of tires and I buy those at America's Tire anyway.
I usually pick up a t-shirt or two for Colt and we eat lunch there and I'll usually swill a couple of beers as well. It's fun looking at new stuff and Colt loves the big trucks and quad stuff.
