65 on the NYS Thruway. From NYC if you hammer up the Thruway at 80, you'll be there within the hour. OCC is 2min. off the thruway.

The shop is nice to visit if everything else is closed.The OCC crew are like rock stars in thier own mind.Ever heard the saying "They think their **** don't stink?"
You get the idea now.Every year Montgomery holds a General Montgomery Day for locals to hang out and have a few beers and see the sights.They were charging $20 a pop for autographs.
If you want real bikers,take time to visit East Side Custom Choppers on Rte.52,about 15 minutes from the OCC shop.They have a moto-mall and a Bar and Grill right across the street that has great food.They do more for the local biker community in a month than OCC does in a year,and they are the real deal.Great folks.
OCC has alot of flash with an asshat attitude.Mikey's the only decent one of the bunch.
If you watch the OCC show much you must remember Vinnie DiMartino.He quit OCC a while back and opened up V-Force Customs.They are located right up 17k from the OCC shop also.

It takes an hour and 15 min. to make it from the north end of the city. It's worth the trip. the 911 Firemans bike will put a tear in your eye. Get there early, and drop me a line and i'll take u out and show you some nice riding.. OCC is not the best reason to come to the area.. A ride to Woodstock is...

Depends on where in NYC, but from the t-boro should be little more than hour - hour 1/2, again on the traffic/construction/accidents which abound in and around nyc and westchester. Showroom is just off the highway, gas station is on the corner. The ride is good and the shop is impressive from a distance. Bikes are great close up.

Last time we left NYC, I almost hit a swan in the middle of the interstate.
