TrailRex '09; The Biggest OHV Festival in the Northeast Set for August 20-23

The annual TrailRex (Trail Riders Expo) promises to be the biggest northeast OHV festival of the year! This four-day mega-event is slated for August 20-23 at the expansive grounds of the Indian Lookout Country Club in Pattersonville, NY (20 miles west of Albany). Though family fun is certainly the primary goal of TrailRex, the festival is also designed to build important alliances in an effort to increase riding opportunities in the northeastern states. Many riding clubs, dealers and sponsors are already on board to make the festival a success.

Highlighting TrailRex are the numerous riding/driving events that feature classes for a wide variety of OHVs, including ATVs, UTVs, Dirt Bikes, Jeeps, 4x4 Trucks, Rock Crawlers and there's even a big Snowmobile grass drag event planned (see website for event details). However, the festival features much more than motorsports competitions as there will be 8 different bands playing over the weekend with professional sound and light systems as well as a fireworks show every night. To keep everyone in the family happy there's also a mechanical bull on hand, a Miss TrailRex Contest, Dale Earnhartd Jr.s #88 (you can try your hand at changing a NASCAR tire too!), and a special "surpise" exhibition from the Army National Guard and U.S. Marines like you've never seen before.

Event Highlights include;

Great strides have already been taking place in regards to expanding northeast trail riding opportunities. In the past two years, the New York State Powersport Dealers Association (a primary sponsor of TrailRex) has helped riding clubs open over 800 miles of insured OHV trails on private lands. Over 70 dealerships and 26 OHV clubs will be involved in the TrailRex extravaganza this year with dozens of great sponsors on board as well.
