World HQ recently received a curious email here that has us contemplating a drive out of the city into the heart of Nascar country. The Big Stampede Bike Expo and Swamp meet bills itself as the “biggest bicycle expo and swap to hit the Southeast”. What truly has our interest – Big Stampede benefits local non-profit Trips For Kids Charlotte. A worthy beneficiary always in need of more funding and participation.

More:

WHEN: The expo/swap is from 9AM until 3PM.

Details:
WHERE: Charlotte Motor Speedway in Charlotte, NC, will host the 2010 Big Stampede Southeast Bike Expo & Swap in the NASCAR Nationwide Garage located in the infield of the Speedway.

Admission = $5.00
