    I have not been there myself but am planning to this year. The way it sounds is, it's not just racing it's riding, dragging,hillclimbing, and just hangin out and havin a blast. I dont think anyone would laugh or belittle you cause of your ride, these are some of the best people around in my opinion.

    This year was our first year. We had a blast and didn't get to do half of what we wanted to. No, it's not just racing, and no, no one will laugh at your machine. Trust me, you'll have a great time.

    i want to hit it up this year too. ive herd it was a blast. that mud pit looks like a blast but i no longer have my mudder. but i do have a quick auto-x. so ill probably on the trails more than anything. thats if i can get the money to get there.


    no man i dont think anyone will be little your ride. ive met quaders the diss each other hard core and the same with sledders. but out of everyone i think trikes are probably the best group of people. it dont matter if its a ragg or a queen. as long as she runs good who cares.
    down to parts because i no longer have a place to ride trikes.

    GIT IT RAAAGGGGG !!!!

    Heck, it doesn't even have to run good! Just run. I've even seen trikes brought there that don't even run. But, there are many restored and custom trikes that are awesome to look at, and the races get better each year. Come and have a great time.

    I WILL BE THERE!!!!!! And you can all see that I'm not a prick, I just hate to see parts ruined and people doing half arse stuff. We gotta preserve these things ya know!!

    Problem is I wann bring 3 machines but there might not be enough room. I'll just bring the 350X and spank the hell outta everyone.... J/K I KNOW it's not that easy!!

    T-FEST sounds like a once in a year/lifetime event. I would love so much to toss around a few with the guys I have never met in 10 years. There are so many good people on this board!!!!!

    All I can say is Trikefest is awesome! Been there, done that, and i'll do it again! If you don't have a 3 wheeler, then bring your quad, dirtbike, dune buggy, jeep...Whatever anything goes! Just be safe and have fun. Wear your helmet, it's the one rule that is strictly enforced.

    If I go, which would be my 1st time, I'd like to help out in "policing" the area and if I find anyone up to no good, they will be contained for a while in the portable jail cell I will bring along ....... ( I would enjoy this )



    Anyone that could donate a siren for me to use on trike, that would be great!

    Trikefest is an awesome experience that I have never found anything like anywere else. You got the fun of camping and hanging out with a bunch of friends combined with basically as much riding as you can possibly do on more land than you can cover, while at the same time theres a bunch of different events to go to. I know that after going a whole year of being the guy on the old 3 wheeler that stands out, it the coolest thing to spend a few days surrounded by hundreds of other 3 wheeler riders and hang out with them. I've met a bunch of really cool people the last 2 years I went and I'm sure I will meet more this year. I know that whenever I go on a regular camping trip after comming back from trikefest, it doesnt feel right not being able to cruise around the camp sites on trikes and hear 2 stroke 24/7 haha. so yeah its an awesome time you should go.
    85 Tecate, 2002 Honda 300EX, 83 & 84 250R, a bunch of honda 4 strokes from 90 to 200cc, a klt 110, ytm 200, polaris 250 cyclone, '05 Roketa 125 (cheap chinese pitbike to beat on), '69 Scrambler 6x6, and a 52 John Deere B (hey its a rowcrop narrow front, that counts right? )
    Trike Fest 06 and 07 Survivor, hoping to make it to 2010
