So enjoyable spending those days with you and Felisha, Thank you for letting me tag along, Your choice of roads was impeccable .............................................JB..
It was nice to meet you uptown - Celebrities always stand out in a crowd. I've been watching you for years. I agree with the 9N north / 9S loop, always a good ride. And the Tour Expo lack of vendors (at least Goldstrike was there for accessories). There's always next year 😊
Thanks, Craig, for another great video. This was my 38th Americade and it is sad for me to watch how the changes, which are inevitable, are changing this rally. I agree with you on each point you make but now my reason for going is to enjoy the roads, the scenery and reconnect with the people I've met at the rally and who have become some of my dearest friends?
Free and I have only gone once. This video has me wanting to add it to the 2025 calendar today! Great job with this video. Entertaining and informative. Bonus getting to share the experience with a friend.
Hi Craig, congrats on another well drafted video. brings back good memories on our first rally a few years back when we met you and your wife. Hope to do it again in the near future. stay safe and hope to see you again, cheers Dave
Been waiting for this. Hanging out with Jarvis Biker 👍. The roads and route to Whiteface Mountain more than make up for the lack of vendors. You have the WRONG team on that hat..." WHO DAT".👍
Looks good. Was there in 2014 and wanted to go this year but there were other plans. I also need to find another option for a hotel because the Surfside has gotten ridiculous with their rally pricing.
I go to Americade for the riding. I have seen the serious decline in Americade participants over the years. I was even able to get a hotel room in the registration hotel this year. In 11 years, I've never been able to do that. Wish I had seen you up there. I was on my brand new GSA as well.
Based on this video I made the Lake George to Lake Placid ride via Route 9 to 73 then I did 73 back via 9N. Will try 74 the next time. So in reverse ish. It was an awesome loop. I went to Lake George via 104, 3, 49, 365, 8, 28. All awesome roads at the time I went a couple weeks ago. Ride Safe.
Do you have trouble finding accommodations with all the people there? Are rooms booked a year or more in advance? When you video some of the more unusual bikes I would like it if you would spend more time on the walk around, I realize I can pause my video but I like seeing them from all sides. Glad you go places like this I'm no longer able to, thanks.
Thanks for watching. You can get accommodations for a "reasonable" price if you book early enough. I am already booked for next year. While it still isn't cheap, it's much cheaper now than if you wait till next year to book.
Meeting up for a ride would be great. I know you've been going for years, and I've been there for 32 years, we could compare notes and pick a route.......
