East Coast Sturgis '06 | ||
August 10 - 13, 2006.     The "East Coast Sturgis"
Rally took place in Western Maryland in a tiny town called
Little Orleans. This time I packed a tent on the Valkyrie and rode up to the rally, so
Boyd was not with me. Even so, I did meet up with several poeple from Thunder in the Cascades
who recognized me (because of Boyd, I presume). The riding in the surrounding area was outstanding! The Poker Run on Friday
was a lot of fun, especially since I won $50 for the low hand!
The final stop was a bit odd - up
a long dirt/gravel road to
Four Quarters - "An Interfaith Sanctuary of Earth Religion".
They had a Stonehenge-like
gathering place and "no clothing policy". Also took a ride to Cumberland via some very scenic back
roads, ending up at a very nice restaurant (yes, it used to be a brewery). Anyway, great riding
and no traffic!
This rally was even more disorganized than the last one. The bands were OK, but not anything special. The site was a large field and surrounding woods in the middle of the mountains. The camper-trailers that came were packed in so tight they couldn't even open their awnings, making me glad I had left mine home this time. I did meet a lot of nice people, however. Everyone was very friendly, and overall the Rally was a
lot of fun!
