JUNE 10 - GYPSY TOUR TO SUPPORT THE NORTH EAST MOTOR SPORTS MUSEUM
TRAVELING AROUND LACONIA - INFO ON PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION DURING THE RALLY
As much as we all want to add as many miles as pos- TA
The AMA sanctioned Gypsy Tour from Laconia Motorcycle Week® Rally Headquarters to the FIM North America Vintage Road Race Championships at New Hampshire Motor Speedway is a fund raiser for the new motor sports museum south of the Speedway. The Gypsy Tour will have a police escorted ride from Rally Headquarters in Laconia at the Wiers to the new museum and then the speedway. Once at the speedway, participants can purchase a 50% off admission ticket to the races and get several escorted parade laps of the track. Gypsy Tour participants will also receive VIP parking inside the Speedway and full access to the garages, grandstands and pits.
sible on two-wheels, sometimes, other forms of transporta- tion are either more convenient or just plain necessary. If you want to avoid the crowds or if you just want to give your bike a rest for either it or you to cool down, here are some options . . .
Last year AMA Laconia National winner Rich Schlacter led the Gypsy Tour parade laps of the track accompa- nied by the Harley and Indian tank shifter racers. The 2018 Grand Marshal celebrity and tank shifters will lead the parade laps on the track again in 2018. All money raised from the Gypsy Tour will be donated to the new museum. #
