Instructor Spotlight: Brad St. Clair and Sheri Troftgruben

One of the best things about attending an Overland Expo is meeting fellow travelers and drawing inspiration from their adventures. We are fortunate to have a large cadre of such people teaching classes throughout our events, sharing their stories, how they made their travel dreams a reality, and providing guidance on how we can follow in their footsteps. Brad St. Clair and Sheri Troftgruben are two such people and we are excited to have them join us at Overland Expo East, which is just around the corner.

Overland Expo can’t wait to welcome the Bishops to Overland Expo Pacific Northwest later this month in Redmond, Oregon!
