Optimism for the 97th Progressive Laconia Motorcycle Week®
LACONIA, New Hampshire, March 27, 2020: The Board of Directors of the Laconia Motorcycle Week Association held a teleconference meeting on March 26th and determined a decision would be made no later than April 30th on whether or not the Rally would be postponed from June 13th-21st, 2020 to August 22nd – 30th, 2020. At this time, they are optimistic the rally will still be held in June.
“This could be a huge boost for morale of not just motorcycle enthusiasts but everyone in the region,” says Charlie St. Clair, Executive Director for the Laconia Motorcycle Week Association. “This event brings millions of dollars to the state and is critically important to NH businesses & our tourism economy. Not only that, we have all been cooped up inside for well over a month - What better way to tell the world we’re returning to normal when we hear the familiar June roar of motorcycles returning to Weirs Beach?”
The health and wellness of fellow riders and motorcycle enthusiasts everywhere continues to be Laconia Motorcycle Week’s #1 priority. Over the next several weeks, directors will continue to maintain communication with local and state officials and will post any/all updates to LaconiaMCWeek.com, through their e-newsletter, and on all #LaconiaMCWeek social media channels.
Laconia Motorcycle Week® gives great appreciation to all of our sponsors, especially our Presenting Sponsors: Progressive, AMSOIL, and Team Motorcycle as well as the State of New Hampshire for their large financial support of our rally each year.
“Laconia - where rallies were invented!” #LaconiaMCWeek
