In Lake George, New York. June 1-6th. My long time riding buddy and I were there three or fours years in a row back in the mid 90's. A great area to do some riding. The adirondacks in NY, Vermont, New Hampshire, and we even tried to get to Maine one year for lunch but we got sidetracked. We are making plans to head up this year for a couple days, it's been a long time but I am psyched to carve some of those roads with the F6B. If anyone is familiar with the area and can suggest some some riding destinations that would be great. I remember years ago riding to Lake Placid, Ben & Jerry's and White Mountain in Vermont? and of course around Lake George. I also remember taking a ferry one time but I'm not sure where that was, I'll have to do some research on that.

I'll probably stop by for a day or so. I live about 2 hours away so I could do it in a day. I want to see the vendors primarily to see the stuff we talk about here , also just to see that many bikes is a trip. You are right about the area- it is amazingly beautiful.

I live in Boston and am riding in early Friday morning, camping Friday and Saturday night and riding home on Sunday. Not in the market for another bike but I love riding all of the demo machines.

When I get old and my knees give out maybe I will trike mine..nah,not a trike kinda guy.
I can not get past the "doesn't supposed to be on there" look.
I say this now.
My wife has hinted at getting a Wing trike in the future,so the above statement may be moot.:icon_lol:

I think that trike is beautiful. What's the deal with storage on those; can you still use the sidebags?

No sidebags,there is a trunk.
