Default Laconia Time Again
I planning my yearly trip back out to Laconia again. This time I'll be out there from the 19th to the 22nd for bike week.

What are the odds of rain? I hope to at least get through one year without getting wet....

I like our odds this year. It has been fairly dry with the exception of the past couple of days here on the coast. Rain is always going to be around, you just hope for no full day rain outs or cool weather. I can remember being stuck in our cabin for two or three days with mid 50's and constant drizzle to rain. We drank a lot of beer that week.

Good times with good friends, it will be a blast as always.

The extended weather report is already predicting rain. I'll just hope it changes for the better as I get closer to my trip. So far though, it's not looking too bad....

Plan for the worst, hope for the best. I'm still waiting for my bike repairs to finish but I kept my tour pack at the house and have my saddlebag liner bags already packed. Rain gear on the very top!

Come on, man. You know better than that. June is the rainy season here. It *will* rain at some point, so just have your rain gear ready.
