| Ice Road Trucker Alex Debogorski Last weekend Maz Tommy and I attended Truckfest 2011 along with Matt,Tori and the kids as well as Marc & Carol Greening of Peacock Transport.The weather was great and the highly polished trucks came in the the hundreds. We were there as well as for the club but on a personal note as well and armed with Phones for Heroes Pre-paid envelopes Forces Children's Trust Pots and the Banners as well we set up for the weekend.   Time to relax before Sunday morning when the gate open to the public.  |
The show as usual had many lovely trucks with art work on and our friends Andy and Tom Scott Custom Paint House were there on Saturday and Monday doing Airbrush art work Demos

The show was International with Trucks in from Holland Germany,Sweden and Our friend Geovanni from Austria.
Geovanni informs me that he now has 50 Trucks on his firm and 16 of them now have art work on.

Believe it or not the Tuesday before Truckfest Giovanni tipped out a full load of cement in Koln Germany,then came over and arrived at the showground Wednesday.
