GRAND OPENING CRUISE IN
O'REILLY AUTO PARTS
COVINGTON VA - JUNE 14, 2026
It was kind of like Déjà vu, just this time we actually had a great crowd when the incessant rain made yet another appearance and cut a great car event short. We really enjoyed the short time that we all got to hang out at the new O’Reilly Auto Parts store in Covington. The Alleghany Cruisers were honored to host the Grand Opening Cruise In at their store, we just wish we would have had better weather. Beth Lewis, the manager of O’Reilly Auto Parts and here entire team are wonderful people and they are great friends to the car community here in the Alleghany Highlands. We look forward to doing this again next year. As we seem to have to say too often each year, it was fun while it lasted
THE CLASSIC CRUISE IN
MAGIC CITY CHEVROLET
COVINGTON VA - JUNE 12, 2026
Well, it wasn't the kind of day we wanted, but it was fun while it lasted. The Classic Cruise In at Magic City was cut in half by the incessant rain that seems to often rear it's ugly head during car events. The threat of storms dramatically hurt attendance at this event, but those that did attend were still able to enjoy a couple hours with friends. We really hate that it went this way however. Magic City Chevrolet has been a strong supporter of the Alleghany Cruisers from the very beginning and we were really hoping for a good showing for them. We also hated it for Hubble's Concessions, we wanted to see Helena have a great night. Hopefully the remainder of the car event season will stay dry on the weekends
CRUISIN' COVINGTON VII
JUNE 5, 2026
We were blessed with another beautiful evening for the seventh edition of Cruisin Covington 2026. A decent size group gathered at the Mallow Mall and quite a few cars were seen cruising the town. Also saw a lot of Corvette's out, which was really cool. Quite a few of us gathered at Wal Mart for an informal cruise in with our friends. It is great seeing folks get out on the town on a Friday evening. Another great evening with our friends.
CRUISIN' COVINGTON VI
MAY 29, 2026
It was a great evening for the 6th edition of Cruisin Covington 2026. It was a beautiful weekend, and after torrential rains ruined car events everywhere last weekend, folks were eager to get back out. Quite a few cars were observed cruising Friday evening and several of us gathered at Wal Mart for an informal cruise in. It was a perfect evening for some old school hot rodding fun and a great evening with our friends.
CRUISIN' COVINGTON V
MAY 15, 2026
It was another beautiful evening for Cruisin Covington and quite s few cars were out on the town. Several of us gathered at Wal Mart for an informal cruise in and we also saw some folks hanging out at Advance Auto. We love the nostalgic atmosphere of cruising the town with friends. Another great evening with our friends.
THE SPRING CRUISE IN
KINGS TIRE SERVICE
COVINGTON VA - MAY 8, 2026
There is just something about the atmosphere of an old-fashioned Friday evening cruise in. It is laid back, fun, and nostalgic all at the same time. That was exactly what we had Friday evening at King’s Tire Service. It was a beautiful evening for a cruise in and around 30 vehicles were on hand, not to mention a pretty large public crowd. The folks at Kings Tire Service are awesome people, they have been supportive of our club from day one. We truly enjoy coming here. Good times with cars and good friends, that is truly what the car culture is all about. Eugene “The Lone Wolf” Windsor did his usual awesome job providing D.J. services and Love All BBQ offered some amazing good. Again, it was a great evening with a great atmosphere. We truly appreciate the opportunity to hold these events at Kings Tire Service.
CRUISIN' COVINGTON IV
MAY 1, 2026
It was a chilly evening for Cruisin Covington IV, but thankfully it was dry after a week of rain. The cool temperatures and several nearby shows tomorrow kept the crowd down, but those that did come out enjoyed a great evening with friends. Another great evening if old school hot rodding fun.
CRUISE IN FOR AUTISM AWARENESS
RIVERMONT SCHOOL - FALLING SPRINGS VA
APRIL 25, 2026
Well, it was fun while it lasted. The Alleghany Cruisers partnered with our friends at Rivermont School Alleghany in Falling Springs VA to host the 4th Annual Cruise In for Autism Awareness on Saturday. Unfortunately, the rain moved in and cut the event short. Not sure why everyone worries so much about the lack of rain, it seems like as soon as car event season starts it always makes an appearance. The threatening weather kept the car count down but those there had a good time while the sun was out. There were many great vendors on hand and Hubble’s Concesson’s did an awesome job with the food service. We hope to see this event bounce back next year as the Rivermont School is a great facility and this is a great community event. The Alleghany Cruisers remain committed to the folks in our home town. Again, it was fun while it lasted.
CRUISIN' COVINGTON III
APRIL 24, 2026
It was another beautiful evening for Cruisin Covington III Friday. Several people hit the streets for a great night of cruising. Several of us gathered at Wal Mart for a informal cruise in and a few more were hanging out at O'Reilly Auto Parts. It was another fun outing with our friends.

It was another beautiful evening for cruising. The Pigeon Forge Rod Run saw a lot of the regulars out of town but a few still made it out for a great evening of cruising.
CRUISIN' COVINGTON I
APRIL 10, 2026
What an amazing evening to kick off Cruisin Covington 2026. It was a beautiful evening and a lot of folks took advantage of it and got out on the town Friday evening.
