TabTuesday: Cars, Fixies, and Food Trucks! Thanks @Store13 !

Last night, West Covina’s own Store13 hosted a special Tab Tuesday event for this year’s Thanksgiving holiday.  It was an idea put into place by owner Tepi Benjamins a few months back, with hopes of just having a few food trucks, and the regular fixie riders, as well as a few local car guys who’ve participated in past Tab Tuesday events.  Tepi has a lot of connections, and as the date of the event rapidly approached, others were willing to show up and help out.  Ford brought down their new Focus collaboration project, with fixed gear bicycle brand Leader Bikes, which was nice.  A slew of food trucks also came out to feed the crowds, such as the Calbi truck, California Grill Truck, as well as about 5 others.  Even local radio station KROQ came out to enjoy the madness!  Well, as word spread, I guess people were itching to get out, because there ended up being 300+ in attendance (by my estimations), which had to have grown further into the night, because as we left, the parking lot behind the movie theatre parking structure was damn near full.  Full of every type of SoCal import automotive enthusiast that you can think of:  Full on JDM, VIP style, Drag Racer, Hard Parker :), and even a legit RHD R34 Skyline GT-R, which is nothing new, but it raised a lot of attention, due to the fact that they are all supposed to be illegal in the USA, after some legality issues were investigated by the Feds!  And it was one of the cleanest R34’s I’ve seen in a long time, and all original.  There was also the younger brother model in attendance as well, the next gen GT-R, which was also nice to see.  I’ve taken a lot of pics, and you can check the rest of them out HERE, but here’s a few to start you out with.  Enjoy!
