Pretty rare occurrence to have two articles go up within a week time-span. While this isn’t going to be a regular thing, I am definitely going to hold myself to get more involved and shoot some events here and there. Going off Thursdays cruise night, I was hoping something would pop up soon, and I got lucky to catch a flyer for this event the morning of – AND it was down the street from me. Sort of like it’s all some sort of sign.

Thursday cruise nights have always been a thing here in McAllen. I started going out back in 2004, when I told my parents where I was going they even brought up that cruise nights were a thing back when they were in high school. The automotive scene in the Rio Grande Valley is nothing new, but the state of things is definitely new.

The first ever “Rev & Rise”, hosted by Integrity Auto Repair, took place this past weekend.  Being involved in an event like this wasn’t something I had seen myself doing but having a great group of people come together to create a community event was really fun. The live music, awesome vendors, and an incredible variety of vehicles made this first ever event one to remember.
