Not my first pick for a hotel. But way closer than from home. We are coming across the lake from Muskegon Mi.
That's not bad. I don't think it's in a dicey area. It's closer to Sturtevant than Racine which is a good thing. You're right by Hwy 38, which a good alternate route to Milwaukee and an okay ride for awhile. Then you can cut over to 32 and follow the lake. That eventually takes you to Bayview - Milwaukee's latest "cool" neighborhood. Lots to do there.

Or just hop on I-94 and you're 20-25 minutes away from downtown and the Harley Museum. I'de say you did well.

I'm planning on going to the 110th and will staying with a relative. Anyone familiar with the Harley 110th celebration ticket? Is this worth the price? The celebration ticket says it comes with:
Collapsible Koozie – $1 canned beer specials and $1 bottled water
Aug 29 – Sep 1, 2013 at the Harley-Davidson MuseumŽ (one beer per koozie per order– must bring koozie to Milwaukee and show at time of order)
Is this only 1 beer for the entire celebration? Are they other benefits worht the $100+ price?

95th 1200- You nailed it on the head when you talked avout the North Side. I grew up in Muskego, but when I was 19 lived in the north side area with friends, cheap housing so we could afforsd beer...lol... granted that was back in the early 80's, but wasd still a rough area.

Buckeyeman- not sure about the beer specials etc... but the 105th ticket was worth it. We had a great time with all the bands beer and food. Summerfest Grounds are great. Not usre if we are doing the Summerfest grounds thing on the 110th. No bands announced yet. Every dealership in the area has things going on at the dealersips, food music beer, and lots of fun. If ya like camping Hog Haven in West Bend at the County fairgrounds is a blast! Had Lynard Skynard play there one night!

Says this about the Summerfest grounds:
  • Admission to the Henry Maier Festival Grounds (Summerfest Grounds) from Aug 29 – Aug 31, 2013
  • Automatic entry into the 110th Anniversary Celebration Parade Pass Sweepstakes for a chance to win one motorcycle pass to ride in the parade on Aug 31, 2013.†
  • For H.O.G.Ž members, the ticket also includes the H.O.G.Ž 30th Anniversary celebration with member-only access to the Summerfest Grounds on Aug 29 from 12:00 PM-5:00 PM along with other member-only activities throughout the weekend. Membership card must be shown with Celebration ticket for entry to those special activities.
  • With submission of your email address at time of order:
    • Presale opportunity for Aug 29 – Aug 31, 2013 Marcus concert tickets (prior to general public)
    • Map of historic Harley-Davidson sites for touring at your leisure while you’re in Milwaukee
    • Link to download free event app on your smartphone
----

Kid Rock or other big name concerts must not be included. Prolly just get the ticket and will get tickets seperate for the concerts. Can't miss the Kid Rock concert.

Correct about the 3 big concerts...those will be separate. It looks like ticket holders will have a chance to buy early.

I have reservations in Pewaukee, I too am stymied on whether to buy the "ticket", never listened much to kid rock....does everyone think this will be worth it?

We are coming across on the Lake Express on Friday to Sun.,I got the last room at the Wilwood...$$$.

I thought just hanging out, watching people and bikes would be a treat, this will be my first big bike experience. I was thinking I would like to see the Harley Museum, what else should I look to do?

It's almost double what it was for the 105th. Depends on the bands, Black Crowes, ZZ Top were free. Extra money for Springsteen and Foo Fighters.

I have heard Kid Rock will be the headliner Saturday night. Just saw him in KC last Saturday, great show. Others will be announced this spring.
