ColoRODan’s 41st Annual Rod Festival.
Seven Thirty comes early, but for many, that was the time people started lining up to get prime spots at Longmont’s Roosevelt Park for the official 41st annual Rod Fest. This year was one of the biggest and smallest ever!!
The Theme this year for the RodFest was the largest collection of peddle cars this side of the Mississippi. There were nearly 100 classic and antique peddle cars in all forms of restoration from Mint to “ Needs a little more love”.
Of course, if we wanted to do some racing between peddle cars and some of the larger counterparts, we did have some amazing custom built small engines displayed in both I4 and V8 configurations.
These gave the big cars a run for there money. Of course, read more here

The air is cooler and I can feel fall approaching.
It is November and I have been recovering from a neck problem, hence, no updates on the Prez says. I am better now and able to update the website.
The Rodfest went GREAT! Weather was a bit hot, but wow what a show. Hundreds of great cars and events. One of the most talked about events of the entire weekend,
The Cruise.

The ColoRODans is a fun, family oriented car club who has called Longmont home since 1968. Furthermore, the ColoRODans have been a non-profit corporation dedicated to “FUN WITH CARS” since it’s inception in March of 1968.
The ColoRODans participate in many family friendly related events every year including many that that also give back to the various communities around Colorado. Once a year, the ColoRODans give back to Longmont with a special event such as the ColoRODan’s RodFestival, and recently, they have been successful bringing cruising back to Longmont.
Fun and parties are not the only thing the ColoRODans give back to the community, however…
