I think we'll make it up the 1st or 2nd. Went up last year for the first time and loved seeing all the different things people had done to their bikes.

I'm not interested in the bar scene, but would like to check out the vendors. I understand vendors are at the Mad River dealer area and in Downtown Sandusky.
I'm planing on ridding up from Canton on Wed.

I went up to the Bike Week Events yesterday. All I can say is WHAT A F ing JOKE.
I can't believe anyone ever going back to this so called Bike Week. In talking to some of the few vendors there, they weren't impressed either. I've never seen such a long and spread out bike event of this size. I also think location sucks. Someplace in the center of the state would be a better draw. Maybe National Trails on 40 east of Columbus or Mid Ohio. Someplace that can handle everything at one location.
I just got the impression that this was more of a single dealer ( owner) event and NOT put on by major players in the Motorcycle industry of Ohio.
