laconia: bike week

.


i told you this post would be about laconia! the 88th annual motorcycle rally in laconia, nh was this past week and i had the good fortune of being able to ride up there with some friends. we stayed in a beautiful lakehouse that belongs to my gal pal suzanne's parents. they were exceptionally good to let us (6 twenty-something year-olds) stay in their house and celebrate. we had a ton of fun - fishing, paddleboating, drinks, and awesome food. it happened to be her father's birthday on saturday as well so there were all kinds of people there! wicked fun.

we rode down on saturday morning (left at 8am! so early!) on our bikes. my boyfriend greg took his 2006 electraglide harley-davidson, my gal pal's husband chris took his sporty style buell, and I was on my own 2007 suzuki gs500f. suzanne drove the truck with most of our gear.

our bikes waiting for riders!
it was a gorgeous two hour ride with only a litte bit of rain. the worst part was waking up early to beat the rush, though even still we passed at least a hundred bikes going the other way. poor wayne had to stay at home by himself though...he didn't destroy anything that i could find so i guess he enjoyed the alone time!

and speaking of wayne, he's a photo of greg driving me to pick wayne up the day he came home :)

why so serious...?

to finish up the saga of this weekend, i spent fathers' day at my parents' house and got to see my daddy :) i miss my parents a lot now that i'm grown and flown, but it's good to be able to see them more often than twice a year! hopefully they will be able to come up and visit soon *hint hint!* wayne wants to meet you!!
