Is anyone here planning to attend the Overland Expo in Costa Mesa CA this weekend?

➜ [About SoCal — Overland Expo®](https://www.overlandexpo.com/socal) ■

This will be my first one and I’m planning on going on Saturday. It’s not likely that I’ll go on Sunday since we need to drive back home to San Francisco, almost 500 miles away.

I want to buy a rear tire carrier and the company will be there, so I’ll most likely order it from them this Saturday. And there are some other overlanding gear providers that will be there.

Does anyone else plan to go?
