Laconia Bike Rally - New Hampshire

For nearly 90 years, the Laconia Bike Rally has been a New England tradition.  The top picture (35mm) we took looking back toward the area of Weirs Beach.  This is the main street area where bikers line up to walk the wooden boardwalk along the beach and take in all the festivities.  As with any rally, there are booths set up everywhere with all kinds of merchandise, beer tents and plenty of live entertainment.  The rally is set in the White Mountains of New Hampshire near Lake Winnipesaukee.  It is in early June so the weather is always a gamble. The bottom picture is an aerial shot of the area from 1998.
