Default DC for the 4th

Yo Ladies and Gentlemen. I'm bound for District of Columbia on my lowrider from Columbus, OH for the fourth of July. Never been to DC and I'm a proud american so I really feel a patriotic duty to go. As of yet, I'm going it alone but I wouldn't mind someone to ride with! more the marrier. Havent worked out all the bugs quite yet, but if interested and anywhere along my route I'm much obliged to share the road!

You should get there in plenty of time for the festivities and you will have no problem parking and getting a room.

Parking in DC close to where the fireworks are set off on the 4th of July is not as easy as remike indicates. First, they close many streets to traffic, and parking is few and far between that doesn't have a cage in it. On the plus side, it is on Sunday this year. If you haven't made plans yet, suggest you ride in Rolling Thunder instead on Memorial Day weekend. Our dealer supports the ride and arranges for police escort from All American Harley Davidson to Ft Washington HD and then to the Pentagon. Then the bikes are escorted to the Vietnam Wall and it is a great pride ride. PM me is interested.
