Harley Davidson
Latest information is always at:1-800-HD100TH
This will be the picture page for the
Harley Davidson 100th
This will take place at the end of August.
I hope to have my photos up by early October.
I already have my passes to the big 100th blowout.
What are YOU waiting for?
I will see you there!!
As of this writing (June 24th) ticket packages are still
available from Harley, if you haven't yet decided. The cost is $50, and
it includes passes for all four days, and admission
to special events at the lake front, including an exhibit in the art center.
I recommend getting one soon, if you are planning to attend, otherwise
you will pay scalper prices, and will get gouged. The kit includes a patch,
guides to events, the pass itself, and a ticket to enter a raffle, as well
as the pass itself, and a set of Harley, and American flags. Have you got
something better to do this summer?
I do highly recommend getting lodging first. This
late in the summer, you will probably end up camping. Hotels, and motels
are definitely booked up over the duration of the event, for over 100 mile
radius around the city, and have been so for the last several years; don't
even try. Camping is still available at some places, but be warned that
rates are can be between $100 and $300 for the week. If you camp in Wisconsin,
do be aware that this is deer tick country, and that we are one of
the leading states in Lyme disease infection. Do not forget your
insect repellent.
Many of the state parks in Wisconsin have non-reservable
camp sites which are strictly first come first serve, though I would recommend
attempting to reserve a site. Still, if you are desperate, and can get
there early enough, there will be campgrounds available at these
places. Once in, it may be possible to pick up a reserved site, from a
no show or cancellation. The two best parks for this are the Kettle
Moraine State Forest Southern Unit , which is right off of Highway
94 a half hour west of Milwaukee, and the Richard
Bong State recreation area Which is also right off of highway
94, but this time a good half hour south of Milwaukee.
