I used to enjoy raising hell and abusing my health and finances during bike week in Laconia. Now I have so much more fun getting up early and watching the sunrise and riding all day in the mountains and lake areas.

I am glad i already got to a rally this year. Week 1 of Daytona was business as usual. Week 2 was the first COVID shutdown and a ghost town. Party on Garth.

Hope you don't get lost as there is no Lake Weir....
It's Weirs Beach on the southern end of Lake Winnipesaukee in the town of Laconia...

If you get the chance swing over to Bentley's Saloon in Arundel Maine for live music and fresh lobster..
