Just checking in to see if anybody is going to Americade in Lake George, NY this week? It looks like good weather for most of the week and its usually a great time.

 

heading up in the morning

 

I'll be there in spirit. I went to 'Cade 97,98,99. I couldn't even imagine what it's turned into since then.

 

Even though I am bikeless at the moment, I'm heading up for a day mid week most likely just to see what it's all about.

 

I hear the Police agencys will be cracking down on non approved helmets and loud pipes this year. See Northeast events in the forum. Have a safe one.

 

Actually, the State Police are checking all bikes as they come up the Northway (I-87). They have stops set up and all bikes are required to stop for inspection. They are checking license endoresements, headlights, pipes, etc. Basically, they bike gets an inspection right there and then. I watched a segment on the news Friday night, but I don't know how long they'll be doing it.

 

That sounds a little over the top. I know cops in Myrtle Beach usually suck but NY State seems to have taken the cake this year.

I've had some pretty damn good times up there, before I moved to SC. What could be better than being at a bike rally, partying and then being able to fish one of the best trout streams in the U.S. I'm speaking of the Ausible just north of Lake George. Maybe one of these years I'll make the 1,000 mile trek back up there.

Anyone wanna send me back some fresh smoked meat from Oscars smokehouse in Orangeburg??? If you're not in the know, I highly suggest locating it and making some purchases. You won't be disappointed.

 

You can mail order from Oscar's Adirondack Smoke House.
