Laconia Motorcycle Week 2008

The 84th Annual Laconia Bike Week is off to a good start! Jennifer Anderson, director of Laconia Motorcycle Week, said the crowds Saturday were big, but not unanticipated. While not citing specific numbers, she said first-weekend attendance was up, following a national trend by bikers to arrive motorcycle rallies earlier for bike week rallies.

Anderson said that while she and executive director Charlie St. Clair, expect the economy and high fuel prices to affect overall attendance, she doesn't think attendance by bikers in the region will be greatly reduced. While some riders may be reluctant to travel long distances to the event, she has already met riders this year from North Dakota, Minnesota, Colorado and Oregon.

Laconica Bike Week dates this year are June 14th - 22nd. Listen to Jennifer explain how the event has grown to incorporat events all over New Hampshire. <<More>>
