anybody going to americaide 2012? This will be my first time! Just wondering about good places to stay and if it's better to stay in town or outside of town.Someone told me that they like to stay outside of town at Gray court.They also stated the one advantage of staying in town is you don't have to find parking for the light parade.

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Where to stay is definitely a personal preference. You tend to ride more when you stay out of town. I prefer staying in town due to the parking situation. Town can get very full, especiallly toward the end of the week. With headquarters now at Fort Wm. Henry staying in town is even more convenient. You can, however, get more reasonable accommodations out of town.
I'm ready to go, starting to count the days.:yes:

Just like RNET said, If you like to camp this is the place. They have rental camps and a bunch of us will be there. This is the best campground I have ever been to. Well worth the price. Link below.

I stayed at the studio motel last year and that was nice, but nothing beats camping and Spydering.

I always stay out of town. Not because its more reasonable,but I enjoy the awesome roads in and around Lake George.

It sounds like I will finally meet some of you!:thumbup:It will to nice to have some faces to go with the names. I will be there for the group ride also. We won't be staying at the campground even thou I love to camp.When I bought the spyder I sold my gooseneck horsetrailer which I use to sleep in.From reading here it sounds like I want to be a little out of town.

If you like to party like Charlie Sheen, stay in town. If you like a peaceful nights sleep without partygirls screaming and tire burnouts at 1 am stay out of town.
15 years ago I would have stayed in town, but now I have trouble staying awake after 10 pm. :roflblack:

To be honest with you, last year I could not believe the amount of Spyders I saw. I know there were more Spyders there than I have ever seen gathered in one place before. nojoke

It is a cabin with everything but linens and towels, but I would check with the park.

That was very poor writing skills on my part. Sorry.
If you do not own a camper, or if you just want to bring the Spyder with you to Lake George. You can rent a camper they already have set up. Like Ron said, call the park for more info if your interested.
I would love to hear some funny/interesting stories from other nurses! I look forward to meeting Holly and you! But the way does the camp have paved roads? Some of my Harley friends,that will be the first question out of their mouths:doorag:

Those Harley riders don't seem too adventurous; do they??
Back in about 84 or 85; we were lining up for the Parade... The Hawgsters took one of the parking lots and proclaimed it "For Harleys only". It didn't go over all that well with the Wing-Dings and there were some hurt feelings along the way...
