A quick trip over the hill and *BAM* there I was pulling up to the pier at the Riverview Lodge. The Riverview Lodge is a classic place to have a show. The breeze off the bay kept the crowd cool as cars lined the lodge&#8217;s pier. And if the breeze wasn&#8217;t enough, drinks at the lodge bar also helped! The lodge is like a old Elks club lodge turned restaurant but still keeping with the old beat up look.<\/p>\n<p>This would be the 3rd annual show  hosted by Antioch&#8217;s own Dragoons CC. Being in Antioch I knew it would be a diverse show and boy was I right. Everything from your classic and custom bombs brought in by Bay Bombs CC and the Dukes CC of the East Bay. Then there were the rat draggers provided by Vallejo&#8217;s Swanx CC. Not only did they roll in with some choice rats but also had some pretty clean pinstripping as well.<\/p>\n<p>Of course like all shows, you have your vendors and music and lately, you&#8217;re likely to find a pinup contest. This years pinup contest the winner took home a cool 100-bones. Not bad for strutting your stuff and waving to the crowd for a couple of seconds.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"highslide\" onclick=\"return vz.expand(this)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/dsc_0050.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[4663]\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4670\" style=\"margin: 4px; border: 2px solid black;\" title=\"hot rods on the pier in Antioch, California\" src=\"http:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/dsc_0050.jpg\" border=\"2\" alt=\"Kustoms Cars, custom cars pics, custom cars pictures, northern california Car show\" hspace=\"4\" vspace=\"4\" width=\"575\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/dsc_0050.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/dsc_0050-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/dsc_0050-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/dsc_0050-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a>Crazy sunset picture from Nite of the Hot Rods in Antioch, California<\/p>\n<p>As far as the tunes, there was 3 very cool bands.
