The event is in it’s 5th year and has seen a steady increase in participation. “Participants come from all over to ride in our event, their feedback has been that it is well organized, well-marked, and lots of fun for the whole family, pooches included” says Autumn Boyle-Robinson CEO of the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Colorado River.
“The River Rat Motorsports team have been involved, from the start, with the Desert Tromp, for several reasons. First and foremost is that this event helps the Boy and Girls Club raise money and visibility from and in the community. Second, Autumn puts on the best Off-Road Poker run and day trip of any organizer in Mohave county. Being associated with such a well-run event is exciting and a good image builder and Third is that this event directly targets our customer base. Having exciting off-road vehicle-based opportunities for our customers is the icing on the cake.” Bob Morris Owner of River Rat Motorsports
