Tour Nebraska vehicles coming Sunday morning

Tour Nebraska to pass through Superior

Sunday, area residents will be treated to the sight and sound spectacular associated with the 28th annual Nebraska Rod and Custom Association Tour Nebraska. The host city for the 2021 tour is Hastings. The two-day tour covers 600 miles. The tour departs from Hastings Saturday and Sunday mornings.

Participants are scheduled to arrive at Guide Rock at 8 a.m. They will proceed to Burr Oak, arriving at 8:15 a.m. From Burr Oak they travel through Mankato at 8:25 a.m. The tour heads to Superior, arriving at 8:50 a.m. From Superior, the itinerary takes the tour through Nelson on the way to the morning break at Clay Center.

The annual tour was cancelled last year because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

More than 450 vehicles are registered for this year’s tour. Entered vehicles must be at least 30 years old. There are classic, antique and special interest vehicles making the tour.

The vehicles are placed in two groups. There is a 10 to 15 minute gap between the two groups. Two leaders are in front of each tour group, Support vehicles also accompany the groups to provide emergency services such as gasoline and tire repair.

The tour can be heard before it comes into view. More than 30 minutes are needed for the two groups to pass through a town or village.

This is a unique Nebraska experience. The tour organizers encourage residents to enjoy the show and show their support as wheeled vestiges of days past again take to the Nebraska highways.
