Americade has become the world's largest multi-brand motorcycle touring rally, attracting over 50,000 annually. It's a convention of riders and passengers who enjoy riding tourers, sport-tourers and cruising motorcycles.
Americade is a gathering of friendly, fun-loving folks, for whom motorcycling is a social hobby, but not some form of rebellion. It's NOT the place for shows of speed, hostile attitudes, or illegally loud motorcycles. Americade supports the AMA position that "Loud Pipes Risk Rights."
May 1983 marked the first "Cade" in the east. Veteran motorcyclist Bill Dutcher, and a small but able staff, hosted "Aspencade East " at Lake George, NY. Social and demo headquarters were at Roaring Brook Ranch. The TourExpo tradeshow was held at the Glens Falls Civic Center, approximately 10 miles to the south. This first event drew over 2,000.
Why Lake George?
What place could be better? Lake George is a large friendly resort community with many scenic roads, easy access from interstates, and unexcelled natural beauty. As the gateway to The Adirondack Park, the area boasts many winding roads, often leading to mountain summits. This makes for breathtaking riding opportunities and amazing views.
We can arrange for cottage accomodations on or close to the water with a motorcycle to keep you riding all week long. The roads around lake George are some of the most beautiful in the US. Don't miss out for Americade 2009, now scheduling for June 1-6, 2009.
