Popular Post j hancock Posted March 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 21, 2020 Possibly doing some wishful thinking but hopeful that Covid doesn't mess up truck show season too badly. Our daily routines and business are already in the hopper. I think we will all be anxious to get out and look around. Stay safe folks! 6 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

Bullheaded Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Well all the trucking trade shows up here have been postponed, and so have all the antique tractor auctions I follow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 I expect the ATHS national show in Springfield will be either cancelled or postponed this year which is sad as I'm only 68 miles distant. I know the grounds well having worked there in another life although much has changed since.

eddeere Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 I have been planning on going for over a year and was going to bring my B 61. Made motel reservations about eight months ago. It is about a five hour drive for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 I'm hedging my bets on a postponement as it's too close to not attend.

harrybarbon Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Here in Australia, our 2 yearly Kyabram Mack Muster (that was to be this weekend 21 & 22 March) and our national 5 yearly Alice Springs (end of Aug 2020) shows have been cancelled and planned for 2021. And most other shows are cancelled also. So all you guys that have planned to join us at Alice 2020 from USA and Canada, we will miss you. As of tomorrow at 12 noon all non essential businesses are closed, such as restaurants, hotels (pubs) gaming venues, bars, movie houses, etc and each state is going into border lock downs except for essential businesses. However, the truck drivers are still going - they keep the country going and feed and supplied with toilet paper (and keeping the arse-holes happy) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most probably, truck shows will be canceled because of the coronavirus pandemic. Really? That's funny......The thread is over a year old, and most (if not all) truck shows in the USA went on this summer without a hitch. Are you possibly a troll or scammer? 1 Quote TWO STROKES ARE FOR GARDEN TOOLS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
