There are plenty of reasons to celebrate a flawless first day of the first-ever Mountain West show. More than a great start to the third event in the Overland Expo Series, Day 1 of Mountain West closed a 22-month gap between in-person Overland Expo events. The excitement of finally being able to gather together was palpable amongst the 280 onsite exhibitors and the thousands of fans who came through the gates on Friday.
Fans attended the dozens of classes and roundtable events, took turns hopping behind the wheel of the latest RAM Trucks the RAM Ride & Drive, and tested Kenda tires at Kenda’s ‘Designed for Your Journey’ Ride & Drive — along with the other exciting Programming.
Mountain West wrapped up for the evening in the Winnebago Overland Theater for the Overland Expo Foundation raffle. More than 400 fans attended the raffle, hosted by Overland Expo Moto Ambassador Eva Rupert. Sales Director Anthony Sicola spoke about the mission of the Foundation, which will be further funded later this year by the proceeds of the Ultimate Overland Vehicle and Motorcycle auctions this fall. During the raffle, dozens of fans took home some incredible overland gear.
The raffle raised $10,000 for the foundation. We offer a big thank-you to the brands who donated awesome gear for the raffle.
