Believe this is in August last year on MT Washington
Friday during bike week Laconia on the Mountain
It was 62 degrees at 11 am that day If you've never ridden the Auto Road I suggest you put it on your bucket list--unless you're afraid of heights and very tight road
Well as mentioned earlier, the rain can be daunting at times, but that is what rain gear is for ... Besides I've been wet in each of the 46 states I've visited so far .. It kind of comes with the territory ... Plan for the worst and enjoy the best :>)

We lucked out last year--we always do Thur-Sunday in the N Conway area and there was no rain those 4 days that I can recall, or not that we had to ride in
Looking forward to the visit again--should have my bikes out of storage 1st week of April

I camped in North Conway way back in 1980 ... Had a fantastic time :>)

it isn't known as Rainconia Bike Week or Laconia Rain Week for nothing!
So for those up there ( it is 80, sunny, super low humidity today in Fort Myers) in NH and VT, how's "mud season" going?
BTW if you are headed to the Weirs from say Laconia HD, and you are waiting in traffic on the hill going down to the Lobster Pound/Drive In, and your bike is overheating and your thighs are burning, do not shut the bike off and coast it down the hill.... the local cops and all their friends LOVE to ticket people for doing that.

Very true statement ^^^^----I have found that the heavy traffic like this is usually the first weekend[ depending on weather] not as bad midweek through second weekend, but I usually arrive before 11 am
