The WNAX Tri-State Old Iron Association Tractor Ride kicks off today in Yankton, South Dakota. The event is in its 8th year and draws riders from all over the region and as far away as New York State. Association President Rodger Harts says numbers are up this year with 200 participants and the Friday route takes the group through northeast Nebraska.
On Saturday at 7am the group heads out for the approximately 40-mile trek through southeastern South Dakota.
The parade on Friday begins at 6:00 pm in Downtown Yankton.
