Anyone else planning on attending? Wife and I will be there all 4 days. We usually catch the Cape May Ferry around 11-12:00.

It was pretty good last year. Some great bands and good folks.

Well, for anyone wishing to attend you should know that things are looking grim for the event. As of right now it will not be held at the race track. They are proposing having 4 smaller locations instead.

Wife and I aren't too keen on this idea. We always look forward to riding out to a single location and partying all day then winding down and heading back. We usually only spend 2 days tops at the event and the rest of the time riding elsewhere.

One of the spots, the Harley dealership, has always been just about impossible to park at and we don't even bother trying any more. Now we get to sit in 4 different lines like that... YAY!

This just sounds like a real jackass move to me.

Here's the poop:

I read some of the comments from the article and there may be some posturing going on between event organizers and the race track owners. Maybe the event organizers are trying to get better terms from the race track? I've never been to this particular event, but many MC rallys are held at a central location and seem to work well if properly planned. I guess we'll see in a few months.

Thanks for the info and ride safe.
