Laconia Motorcycle Week 2009

Wow, I some how lost track the calendar and this sort of snuck up on me. Bike week in Laconia, NH is almost upon us, happening June 13th-21st this year. For the majority of the country I would imagine this particular motorcycle rally is barely a blip on their radar, but for us New England riders it’s a milestone event for the summer.

Sure, our New England weather is typically true to form and is as unpredictable as ever during this week, 90 degree temperatures one day or cold and rainy the next. Actually, inevitably is almost always rains one of the weekends! But that’s part of the fun!

This year the Broken Spoke Saloon in Laconia is stepping up their game a little bit with an East Coast vs. West Coast biker build-off between Paul Cox and Chica (which should be really interesting) and  Boston’s very own, multi-singer-kick-ass band, Bang Camaro, will be rocking everyone’s world the very first night.

So, who’s going this year? Sound off!

    It’s on my radar screen just not this year unfortunately. I have a state HOG rally during that time and the possibility of Sturgis.

    Monday the 15th. Always go up with a few friends, just for the day. We stop at Hart’s for lunch and then go down to the Spoke for a celebratory beer. Might have as many as 10+ this year.

  3. Hey Lizzie…are you going? Would love to get the experience of Laconia through the eyes of the Kitten since this is probably a rally I may never get to! Never say Never though…right!!??!! :)

    Laconia is always a blast! That’s one thing I miss about living in the Boston area. Just that and the beach and the food. Otherwise, I’ll take AZ. If you go, have a blast!

    I will be going up on Thursday night and coming home on Saturday. Got a group of about 5 of us going, me being the only female. This will be the first year going on my own bike. CAN’T WAIT!

    I haven’t been to Laconia since ’06 . Be sure to eat breakfast at Sunshine and Pa’s…..It was Babe Ruth’s girlfriends house back a long time ago…

    I’m heading out for a solo cross country trip on June 18–Atlantic to Pacific and back–on my Springer. Are any other women riding the northern route MT, WY, etc. the around June 18 to 26? I’d love to hook up for a drink with another Barbie biker!
