Gophers and Cheese

Ha!  You thought I was done with Iron Invasion 2022 didn't you?  At most events I attend, I take photos with both my camera and phone.  I tend to post things on Instagram/Facebook from my phone and the blog tends to have photos just from my camera.  I took enough photos with my phone to, from, and at Iron Invasion that I thought they deserved their own blogpost so here we go!

OK, let's wrap up Iron Invasion / Last Gasp 2022 with a bunch more photos from day two.  Yes, you've seen a lot of vehicles before in my prior posts, but these are different angles... so they're different.  Believe it or not, I take a lot more photos than I share so my giant blogposts are (somewhat) edited down.  Anyway, enjoy the stuff I haven't posted pics of before and new angles of some of the ones I have.

 The fun continues... here are more photos from Iron Invasion / Last Gasp 2022.

 The second day of Iron Invasion / Last Gasp  2022 was full of events all day long.

Lots more to share from my first day Iron Invasion / Last Gasp 2022.  It was nice having the Grom to ride around the fairgrounds and into town (since it's street legal).  It fits so easily in the back of the van that I've brought it to a few events now.

Iron Invasion / Last Gasp was held October 7-9th 2022 at the Mississippi Valley Fairgrounds in Davenport, IA.  Sadly, it was the very last year of Iron Invasion but it was my first time attending (and my first time in Davenport).  I'm glad I got to experience it before it was gone.  I loaded my Grom in the back of my '78 Dodge and headed down to Iowa.  It was 2 days full of cars, bikes, vans, bands, vendors, and a swap meet.  The 3rd day was a hangover cruise but I didn't stick around for that.  For the 2 days I was there, stuff was going on constantly and it was a blast.  It shouldn't be a surprise as this event, which is also a fundraiser , was organized by John Wells, who continues to run Vintage Torque Fest in Dubuque.  To me, there's a very similar vibe - a good thing!  I have way too many photos from this event to cram into one post so keep checking back.
