There are beautiful roads around that area and she's never ridden them with me.<br /><br />Bob:<br />It's beautiful with rain or no rain, very mountainous and very green during the rainy season :-)<br /><br />Dan:<br />I think Jack is being shy, NOT! Notice he's never been to Americade, he's probably afraid to run into her :-)<br />I don't know about other rallies but Americade is very civilized, nice people, never seen any trouble except for when we get in trouble ;-)GFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08254196892811043203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-575417631109784818.post-12558895141917455612011-07-07T20:04:52.103-04:002011-07-07T20:04:52.103-04:00I've always held back from these huge rallies ...I've always held back from these huge rallies because large crowds freak me out! Guess you found the key. Go when it's raining hard!<br /><br />Nice report. I'm just shocked Jack didn't offer any comment about the airhead girl on the bike! Probably because she's chasing him down for child support and he wants to keep a low profile.irondadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17821323482397075170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-575417631109784818.post-46119150645619815192011-07-07T17:31:13.072-04:002011-07-07T17:31:13.072-04:00GeorgeF: Pity about the rain.

The scenery is wonderful, and aside from the rain, looked like a great adventure.BeemerGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15239761274177026636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-575417631109784818.post-23238256080720321912011-07-03T11:15:21.882-04:002011-07-03T11:15:21.882-04:00Jack:

I have vacationed at Lake George quite a bit from the time whwn I was 18 until I was 29, when I moved to Lake Placid. Lake George is to Lake Placid as Seaside Heights is to Tahaiti. <br /><br />But your pictures called to mind a lot of trips I've had to Lake George. I and nights I spent camping from the trunk of a car in the "Battle Grounds," at the edge of town. I have stayed at the Still Bay Resort, abd have eaten at the Sicilian Spaghetti House. I have ridden the Minnie Haha with my daughter (and mom). Does the Minnie Haha still split the morning tranquility with the calliope?<br /><br />With any degree of luck, I'll ride my bike up to the Adirondacks this symmer, and spend some time in Lake George.<br /><br />Great post.<br /><br />Fondest regards,<br />Jck/reep<br />Twisted RoadsJack Riepehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07531160098262862027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-575417631109784818.post-74035395559028957212011-06-30T23:11:21.447-04:002011-06-30T23:11:21.447-04:00Roger:
