Though the actual start date of the famous Laconia Bike Week seems a mystery, they claim to host the oldest running motorcycle rally in the United States. The roots of this rally, like many others, is in motorcycle racing. The Loudon Classic is the longest running race in the U.S. It seems to make sense...

There is no mistaking the fact that 300,000-400,000 bikers converge on the Lakes Region during a span of time that includes Father's Day each year. Surrounded by natural beauty including sparkling lakes and majestic mountains, the area was designed for spectacular riding.

If you're not there for the trees and water, there's plenty of other "scenery" to be found at local watering holes. Your typical bike event activities abound--stunt riders, poker runs, hill climbs, demo rides and of course the Biggest Beer Belly contest! Don't miss this event...
