OK, I'll start....general concensus seems to be breakfast Saturday morning at Long Shots again, followed by a ride. If memory serves, we met last year around 10am - this is fine with me, but I personally think we might have "missed" a few trikers because of the time being so close to the start of the parade (weather didn't help, of course! LOL).

So, is 10am still a good time for everyone? Earlier, later?

Ride ideas? Fort Ticonderoga was mentioned to me - I have only a vague idea where that is, but does that work for everyone else?

Hey Cheri,
I found it. 10:00AM will work for me, but depending on where Long Shots is located, I could probably make it earlier. (I am staying on Beach Street near Tour Expo)

Long Shots is almost diagonally across from there, if I remember correctly. My friend and I walked to the beach Expo last year after breakfast.

Cheri you are right, it is just a short walk up to the Expo. Long Shots is right across the street from the Fort William Henry, a perfect landmark for everyone to find us easily and if you remember from last year I think we had some fellow Trikers who just are not early risers so we settled on 10am.

10am Saturday is when the Americade/Dunlop Parade starts to roll.

Trikes look good in a parade and there will be a special Trike section in it. Too bad you'll just miss it.

Our first time up there, we will be at the 6:30 to 9AM Breakfast (already bought tickets) and will be in the Parade. I see trikes assemble at 9:45AM. I hope to meet other trikers up there for rides and other activities.

Shame you won't be able to join us. I'll be up there Wednesday to Sunday - white & silver Suzuki/Lehman trike, staying at the Lake Crest Inn. I also know another triker John will be in front of Bob's (?) Ice Cream just about every night, so be sure to stop by there if you get a chance and say Hi!

Cheri: I'll see you up there, we'll be going up Monday, last year I seen John first so he bought me a ice cream, looking forward to breakfast. Last year I did'nt make it as I broke down Friday night. Also looking forward to Maggie Valley end of June.....tis

Tis, where are you staying at Americade? Hope to see you this time! Also, you may have told me already or mentioned it on TT, but are you riding or trailering to Maggie Valley?

Hi Cheri,

Sorry I will not see you at Americade this year but looking forwarding to meeting up with you in Maggie Valley at the rally.........

Most definitely!! Mode of transportation still "in the works", but one way or another I WILL be there! Where are you staying? If you aren't at the Four Seasons, make sure to stop by and say Hi to everyone (don't forget Bosco's margueritas are a HIT "attraction" too!
