Got a preferred mode of transport? Are you a wing man/woman or a gear head? Whatever floats your boat, you've got opportunities this week to see some pretty fly planes, tricked-out trucks and super stocks.
Things get a little over the top when the TRAXXAS Monster Truck Destruction Tour bounces into Ferndale for shows on Friday, June 9 and Saturday, June 10 from 6 to 10 p.m. at the Humboldt County Fairgrounds (adults starting at $20, kids 2-11 starting at $10). With names like Craniac, Skully and Bad to the Bone, these 10,000-pound, car crushing giants are the WWE stars of the wheelie world. Don't miss your chance to chant "Air! Air! Air!" with the rest of the rowdies.
