Default NYS HOG Rally Review.

I had a great time!
Love the ride to Coopers Town although it was scary at times with some "other" riders.
At one point as I was driving down a hill I could see the front of the line going up another hill way in the distance. Very cool.
Almost got stuck in the hail storm on the way back but found shelter under some country fueling station.
Ok bike show. Met up with people I met at the VT/NH Rally last year. That was a surprise.
Over all a A+ weekend. Can't wait until next year.

I rode up for the day on Friday and have decided that a one day is not the way to go. Most of the interesting stuff goes on in the evening or early morning when everyone is setting up for local rides. During the day the place is kind of dead, although riding up the ski lift in the rain was pretty good, suspended 80 feel off the ground and watching lightning in the distance.

I rode up Friday morning. Missed the planned rides so ventured out on my own. My inlaws live about 12 miles from Hunter so Iknew my way around. I was diappointed a bit that not many people were at the lodge at night. Stayed there a while and watched a pie eating contest...

Saturday daythere were many more bikes at the mountain.

Stopped at the WaterFall Bar near Prattsville. Seems to be a cool biker hangout.

Man, I wish I had known. I didn't know what you guys looked like or I would have came up to ya. The pictures on the Internet always look different than in person.

I was laughing my head off watching you dump the pie under the table.....

We were there too.

Rented a Bed&Breakfast about 2 miles down the road. Had a great time.

Took the group ride to Copperstown, got caught in the rain on the way back, and took the group ride Spitzie's Dealership.

Noticed the HDForums sign in the main lobby on the last day!!!

We all thought the Rally was well planned and executed and will probably go again next year.



My wife and I are the handsome couple on the right.



Here's a pic of my brother on his bike.




Anybody see us there?

Sammi

We literally decided to go to the Rally the night before.

Were lucky to get accommodations - the Bed & Breakfst was closed for the season, but the owner opened it for us since we rented all 5 rooms and she saw the chanc to get some easy $.

Would have liked to meet upwith the HDForum folks, but it was a last minute deal.
