Street Wheelers

Street Wheelers is a club that was founded in Lethbridge in 1976 they hold an annual Street Machine weekend each summer on the second weekend of July more than 1100 vehicle's take part and other local muscle cars lend support. They hold several events over the course of the weekend with the first being on Friday evening 7-10pm this will be a street cruise along 3rd Ave South where the participants get the chance to show off their cars to local residents and other drivers. We watched this event and were not disappointed by the cars that took part.











As you can see there are cars from every era, every shape size colour possible was here tonight.



On Saturday there is the 100 foot dash, the cars compete to beat the clock. We didnt see the event but heard it was amazing to watch.

On Sunday at Galt Gardens the Show and Shine took place. This is the owners opportunity to showcase their car to the public. Here you are able to get a close look at the cars, the engines and immaculate body work and interiors. Also on Sunday more than 50 trophies are awarded for the best restored vehicle, fastest street car etc

This is a fantastic weekend and you don't have to be a complete petrol head to enjoy it !!
