Laconia Motorcycle Week® 2022

“Where rallies were invented!”

Laconia Motorcycle Week® - Celebrating the 99th Anniversary!

June 11-19, 2022 - New Hampshire – home to America’s Original Riding Rally®

If you can only choose one National Rally to attend in 2022 – choose the one you have to ride the furthest to! And if riding is your pleasure then we hope you’ll be joining us for Laconia Motorcycle Week® in 2022 because In Laconia… We Ride®

Why New Hampshire, you may ask?  Well, to truly understand the answer, you have to go back to the early years . . . 1916, to be exact (7 years were missed due to national and world events), when the first group of gypsy tour riders made the trek up US Route 3, a mostly dirt road that wound its way through the mountains, valleys and straightaways of rural New Hampshire.  Back then, a trip to Laconia, a popular tourist destination even then, was a day-long trip and an even bigger commitment on two-wheels.  What made the trip worth it was the camaraderie, fresh air, accessibility and, most importantly, scenery.  And New Hampshire had it all!  1916 began the story of Laconia Motorcycle Week – the World’s Oldest Motorcycle Rally and the legacy continues!

Today, ask any rider the same question, “why New Hampshire?” and the answers are remarkably similar.  Scenery, fresh air and accessibility.  Where else can you ride up and down mountains, through quaint, New England towns, around magnificent lakes and along miles of oceanfront?  All within 100 miles, too.  On top of that, New Hampshire has the 5th highest motorcycle registrations, per capita and residents and businesses alike embrace the 2-wheeled visitors that embark here every June. 

Once here, riders enjoy the sights and sounds of this national motorcycle rally and can experience all of the thrills you would expect at AMA sanctioned events such as Hill Climbs, vintage and super motor races, and stunt shows.  Laconia Motorcycle Week also has demo rides from some of the biggest major motorcycle manufacturers including Harley-Davidson, Indian, Yamaha and more!  The area bustles with live music of all kinds, bike shows, and vendors featuring the latest and greatest in the motorcycle industry.   Race fans can enjoy camping at Motorcycle Nirvana and be right in the center of the racing action for the vintage races, flat track, and 99th Annual Loudon Classic.

So, there’s a lot to like about the deep and storied relationship between New Hampshire and riding - No wonder many have dubbed the state’s motto “Live Free and Ride®!”  For more information on visiting New Hampshire for Laconia Motorcycle Week, check us out at LaconiaMCWeek.com.
