Dear Americade Visitor,

WELCOME TO THE 2016 AMERICADE!

You are about to experience one of America’s premier events. Each year our community awaits the arrival of thousands of motorcyclists eager to experience our hospitality, beautiful surroundings and the events planned by Americade’s experienced staff and volunteers. Our residents and merchants look forward to renewing friendships and acquaintances made over the past thirty-two years of Americade. Take time also to thank all of the wonderful volunteers that have made this great event possible over the past many years. We are honored to have you as our guests and invite you back at any time of the year with your friends and family. Come back and check out our Charles R. Wood Park Festival Space for exciting events every weekend this summer.

On behalf of the Town of Lake George, we welcome you and your family to the World Famous AMERICADE, held on the shores of Lake George, known as the “Queen of American Lakes”. Each year, motorcycle buffs young and old from all walks of life gather to enjoy the breathtaking views of the lake, meet their fellow bike enthusiasts, find out what’s new and have a good time, against the backdrop of the beautiful Adirondack Mountains. We hope during your stay with us, you will have an opportunity to explore our resort community, which features a unique assortment of shops, restaurants, parks, and beaches. Please enjoy your stay, and return soon during any season to enjoy the splendor of our Town of Lake George.

Dennis Dickinson Town Supervisor

“Lake George…America’s Family Playground”

Director’s Chair The old adage that “we’re all part of a big family” gets used a lot these days, perhaps too much. But, it still rings true in motorcycling. And for Americade 2016, we’ve added two significant members of the family. Let me explain. Last June, when many of you left Lake George with Americade memories and more miles on your odometer, we started working on this year’s event. We’re always in search of a new great road, a hidden gem of a restaurant, and a new source of motorcycling entertainment that we haven’t yet discovered. And, while those improvements are essential to you having a great Americade Week, we’re pleased to make two bigger announcements, involving “old” and “new.” First, the old: We’re introducing a Vintage Motorcycle “Garage.” At Fort William Henry, where you typically see the most factory demos of any event in the U.S. showcasing their latest and greatest, you’ll see a display featuring motorcycles dating back to the 40’s. Private collectors and members of the Antique Motorcycle Club of America and Vintage Japanese Motorcycle Club brought their bikes from around the northeast to Americade to share with you. Go take a look, and see how the modern motorcycle you’re riding today was shaped by these wonderful bikes. And if you see a vintage bike owner there, thank them for sharing their treasured bike with us. Now, the new: Americade is introducing an adventure bike rally called DirtDaze! Americade Week always attracts a broad array of motorcycles, because Americade is known as a true riders rally; if you ride on roads, any roads, then you’ll appreciate what Americade offers. Though we’ve typically focused only on paved street riding, many adventure bikes annually also come, equipped to ride around the world on any surface. DirtDaze answers their previously unmet need, and perhaps yours, too. How? At the DirtDaze headquarters about 6 miles away, you’ll find KTM factory demos, and world class rider training, both of which interests many of us. And there are amusing adventure bike riding contests going on, some great riding entertainment, and some fascinating guest speakers. Like the Vintage Motorcycle Garage, DirtDaze is another (muddier) member of Americade family, and we encourage you to take a look. And, best of all, your Americade wristband works all week long at DirtDaze too. We hope you have a wonderful week of riding,

Stunt Shows The Busted Knuckles Stunt Show is making their debut at Americade 2016, and they’re like nothing you’ve ever seen before. We’ve hosted world champion stunt riders before, but these guys have a unique and fun approach to their wild stunts....they don’t ride motocross or trials bikes. Instead, these guys do all their stunts on Harley-Davidsons! These American Daredevils perform stunts that include wheelies, acrobatics, burnouts, jumps, pyrotechnic stunts, and whatever else they have up their sleeve. These are exclusive shows to Americaders, and if you have a wristband, you’ll have a front row seat to this unique, exciting, and crazy show. Monday 6 & 8pm | Tuesday 5pm & 7pm | FWH Demo Area

They’ll ride up​near-vertical walls, jump​​big gaps, do 180 degree helicopters, bunny hops,​low-speed wheelies,​full speed stoppies, and an endless array of balance skills. Both Pat and Phil Smage are the top echelon of U.S. moto-trials riders​.​Pat is the current and 8 Time National Pro Trials Champion​; he’s the top moto-trials​rider in the entire country. Phil has three X Games victories, three world records, and some of the ​ b​est back flips ever under his utility belt.

Touring Tips 1. Begin your day with a FULL tank of gas and EMPTY bladder. 2. Make a gas stop one of the last things you do before heading for your night’s lodging. 3. If you’re taking a Guided MiniTour with friends, have breakfast together and arrive as a group. We put you in line as you arrive and it’s difficult to accom- modate riders who arrive separately. 4. Some tours have multiple waves and staggered departure times. 5. Arrive with clothing appropriate for the expected weather and temperature for the destination. 6. All MiniTours proceed at the legal speed limit, allowing time for photo opps & rest stops. 7. Because parking may be congested at some stops, trailers are not permitted on tours. 8. Tour Leaders will announce each tour’s CB Channel before departure. 9. Don’t forget to bring your camera. The annual Americade Photo & Video Contest (page 8) pays cash and if you have some shots of destinations, it might pay for your next Americade!

Riding Rules 1. Ride in staggered formation. Use a two-second spacing interval. 2. No passing or weaving, please. 3. All standard rules of the road apply; this is a tour, not a parade or a race. Riders must obey all traffic signals, unless a traffic control officer waves you through. 4. Your presence must be accounted for. If you have to leave the group for any reason, please notify your Tour Leader before you depart the tour. 5. Departure and rest stop times must be adhered to. 6. The main formation will not stop for breakdowns; tour staff will call for assistance if needed. 7. A.M.A. “Ride Straight” rules apply for the safety of all. 8. NO Pets please (for the safety of others and destination restrictions). 9. Bring a FULL tank of gas, an EMPTY bladder & a BIG !

Cruisin’ Lake George Set sail on the “Queen of American Lakes” aboard some of the most interesting ships in the northeast. At 190 feet, The Lac Du Saint Sacrement, is the largest ship on the inland waters of NY. The Saint boasts several covered decks, well appointed dining room, a dance floor and observation deck for taking in the spectacular scenery. The Mohican is the nimble little sister and can glide into serene bays, between picturesque islands, and close to the charming camps & cottages along the shoreline. Finally, the MinneHaHa is a real paddle boat with a working Calliope aboard. Each of these boats offers something unique to those aboard. Each 2-hr cruise starts out with a delicious meal to wet your appetite for the spectacular scenery to come. Support the Troops Cruise - Tuesday We’re taking one of our great Americade cruises and combining it with our love of those who have served. Join us for a special evening celebrating (and surprising) our vets on a cruise sure to make you proud to be American. The Patriot Guards will greet you as you board, and each branch of the military will be honored during the cruise. Folks will dine on Chicken Parmesan & Sirloin Tips w/noodles; Cod with Cheddar Crumb topping; Tossed Salad, Fruit Compote Salad, Potato Salad; Oven Roasted Red Bliss Potatoes; Strawberry Cream Cake and Beverages. Beatles Cruise - Wednesday It’s a British Invasion! Experience the unparalleled beauty of Lake George’s blue waters on a wonderful dinner & sunset cruise while listening to songs of the “Fab Four” and enjoying Fried Chicken, Potato Salad, Baked Beans, Tossed Salad, Cole Slaw and Beverages.

Cruisin’ Lake George - Thursday & Saturday This is a Must Do for any Americader - Taking a sunset or leisurely afternoon cruise on one of the most beautiful lakes in the world, on a beautiful cruise ship, with a great dinner---Fried Chicken, Potato Salad, Baked Beans, Cole Slaw, Tossed Salad and Beverages, with a group of people who share your love of motorcycling. Time on the lake doesn’t get any better than this. Cruise ‘n Cream - Thursday This cruise is not to be missed. You’ll depart from Lake George, traveling along the east shore past numerous uninhabited islands, along the foot of countless Adirondack mountains. The name of the ship is the Mohican, and it offers enclosed decks with wonderful views as well as a top deck for those looking for a gentle lake breeze. Cruisers will have a feast of Beef, Chicken, &/or Vegetable Tacos, assorted toppings, drinks and of course Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream. We’ll make a special stop at an exclusive Ben & Jerry’s scoop shop on the pier just for you! Watching the ship dock at this pier is always great fun, and having an ice cream dessert waiting for you makes it even better. Fireworks Cruise-Friday This will be great! Get THE BEST seats for Americade’s fireworks show on Friday night by hopping aboard a special fireworks 90 min boat cruise. Americade’s fireworks show is launched from barges on the lake, and you can be one of the lucky passengers aboard the MinneHaHa steamwheel cruise ship. You and some of your friends will get a jaw dropping, close up view of the show. (We did this a few years ago, and attendees LOVED it). Cash Bar on board.

All boats run Rain or Shine and leave from the Lake George Steamboat Company on Beach Rd. You may board the Saint & MinneHaHa 1 hour and the Mohican 1/2 hour before posted schedule.

Eric Trow Safety Editor & Columnist for Rider Magazine Owner of the Stayin’ Safe Advanced Rider Training Program Tuesday | 7pm | FWH Conference Center Debunking the Myths of Motorcycling Do car drivers actually come out of nowhere? Are there only two types of riders: those who have crashed and those who will? And do riders ever really have to lay it down? In this engaging and entertaining workshop, Trow takes on the misunderstandings and longstanding myths of motorcycling. Bring your favorite myth and be ready to participate in the discussion.

Jimmy Lewis Winner of the Baja 1000 & Paris to Dakar 4x Gold Medalist in the International 6-Day Enduro Wednesday | 7pm | FWH Conference Center Being a Better Street Rider, by Playing in the Dirt Learn and laugh from one of the best professional enduro motorcycle racers in the world, Jimmy Lewis. You might not know it, but learning to ride on the dirt can make you a much better street rider. Few are better to talk about this than Jimmy Lewis, one of the U.S.’s most famous and successful dirt riders of all time, and former off-road editor of Cycle World magazine. Jimmy operates an acclaimed rider training center in Nevada (JLR Off-Road Training Center); he’ll teach you important riding lessons and will share some great racing stories. You’ll leave a better, happier rider. Fred Rau MCN & Wing World Contributor; Can-Am Spyder Consultant AMA MVP Thursday | 7pm | FWH Conference Center The Tilted History Of Motorcycle Advertising Fred presents his somewhat unique perspective on the interesting, odd and colorful history of motorcycle advertising over the past century. What worked and what didn’t, what was brilliant and what was downright stupid. What motorcycle was promoted as the highly-civilized ”Quiet Gray Gentleman,” which showed their bike being ridden by a monkey, and which one used a practically-naked Playboy Bunny on the back seat? You might be surprised. Become a “Roads” Scholar, earn your diploma, and Enter to win a fabulous prize from NYCM!

Pro Rodeo & BBQ

Saddle Up! Americade has partnered with Baggers, Hot Bike, and Motorcycle Cruiser magazines to create a big, fun and adrenaline-filled charity professional rodeo.

Ticketed Americaders enjoy a special pre-rodeo BBQ. Kick-off Wednesday evening by bellying up to the finger licken’ Texas BBQ at the Painted Pony. Chow down on slowly smoked BBQ chicken and pulled pork, all the fixin’s and dessert. Yee-haw, that’s some good food, and it always gets great reviews from attendees. After you’ve had your fill...mosey on over to the covered stadium to watch a great show - a full-on Professional Rodeo--the cowboys compete in Bull Riding, Bareback Bronc Riding and more​. The cowgirls will race against the clock in a cloverleaf pattern in the barrel racing competition. It’s an exciting, crowd pleasing evening. Everyone is welcome to attend---with some of the profits going to one of the best charities in the region: The Prospect Center*. Whether you’re on a bike, or want to be an honorary motorcyclists for the day, we encourage you to come, enjoy the show, and help ease a rough ride! Signing up late? Registered Americaders can sign up for the BBQ during Americade Week at the Lake George Holiday Inn. General Public: Come on up, and join the fun. It will be a large crowd, cheering and rooting for the professional cowboys and cowgirls. Concessions will be available in the covered stands. Rain or shine: The grandstands are covered. General Public get Your Tickets Here: http://www.paintedponyrodeo.com *The Prospect Center provides excellent care for those of us who were dealt a tough hand in life, and are too disabled to live on our own. http://www.prospectcenter.com

Comedy Shows

Winner of NBC’s Last Comic Standing, Alonzo Bodden is back to tickle your funny bone. In response to overwhelming requests from Americaders who loved his show the last couple of years, we’re flying this hilarious motorcycle-enthusiast/ comedian in again from LA for 3 nights of good, clean humor about motorcycles and the world. You’ll laugh so hard, you’ll feel it the next day. Nationally known for his appearances on NBC’s Tonight Show, Late Night with Conan O’Brien and many others, Alonzo is an avid motorcyclist who’s outrageously funny. His sold-out Americade shows receive standing ovations and each year he has new material plus his famous impromptu audience interactions. Treat yourself to a seat before it sells out again. Opening Act: You may have seen Joe Bronzi performing on NBC’s “Night Shift,” ABC’s “Who Wants to be a Millionaire”, at the MGM Grand, or opening for legendary comedians like Chris Rock or Louie Anderson, and now Alonzo Bodden. His comedy background includes extensive improv training and his performance style mixes award-winning writing with fast-paced “off-thecuff” crowd interaction. Upbeat, clean, and positive; Americaders will love him! Wed, Thur & Sat 8-9pm | FWH Towers Hall

If you don’t have an Americade Full Week Pass or need to pick up a Dinner Ticket---stop by the Holiday Inn (see pg 6 #7) by Thurs. The Best Meal! Last year folks raved about the caterer---so we’ve invited them back. The meal includes: Tequila Lime Chicken Breast; Grilled Flank Steak; Maple Cured Roasted Pork Loin; Tri Colored Orzo Pilaf; Johnny’s Green Bean Salad w/ Pickled Onions; Potato Salad; Baked Ziti; Bacon BLT Salad; Roasted Wild Mushrooms & Arugula Salad; Watermelon & Feta with Champagne Vinaigrette; Salad, & Fresh Baked Rolls. $30,000+ in Prizes! After dessert, you might be one of the winners of Friday’s Major Door Prizes, including a Harley-Davidson® Softail Slim® (must be present to win)! Yep, one lucky attendee will have the keys handed to them on stage. How will they get it home? That’s a good problem to have. Following the Award Presentation and Prize Drawings, The AUDIOSTARS will take the stage. They are one of the best bands around, and can be described with one word: Fun! You’ll love them! FWH

New Fireworks Show! The fireworks will kick off on the ground right before your eyes and switch to a fabulous show over the lake---prepare to plug your ears as the sky lights up. (Tip: Want an even better seat for the show? Get a ticket before hand and hop aboard the Fireworks Cruise as it circles the fireworks launch barge - it’s a fantastic experience, and it’s a short walk from the concert field.)

Craig Morgan is a country music icon, and this is a RARE opportunity to see him in such an up-close and beautiful setting. Craig thrills massive crowds with signature hits including “Redneck Yacht Club,” “Almost Home,” “This Ole Boy,” “Wake Up Lovin’ You,” and the six week #1--- “That’s What I Love About Sunday.” Craig received one of country music’s highest honors when he was inducted as a member of the Grand Ole Opry in 2008.

Dunlop Parade Join the Americade Parade! It’s fun, free and showcases motorcycling to thousands of spectators along Canada St. Simply join the Parade Line-up on Westbrook Rd (enter from Beach Rd) first thing Saturday morning, and we take care of the rest. You’ll ride for about 20 min, ending up at a post parade party. Special dignitaries lead the parade, and some colorful characters are in the parade - there’s a costume contest for the Funniest Outfit, too. You’re welcome to put together something snazzy and give it a roll. Tune your radio to the special station, and turn up the volume: All the motorcycles’ music will play to the spectators. It’s a fun event, and shouldn’t be missed. Americade will collect donations to benefit the Lone Survivor Foundation (benefiting veterans with PTSD). Donations can be made at the Americade Expo Tuesday - Saturday and at the Party on the Pier (see pg 62) after the Parade.

Party on the Pier

NEW Saturday Party! Live Music, Great Food, MORE Door Prizes, Incredible Views and an Amazing Stunt Show. Americade’s famous parade will head to the best destination possible for its post-parade party...the shores of Lake George! The “Party on the Pier” will begin when the parade ends, on the steamship pier at the foot of Lake George. It will be thrilling as the massive ships (and their loud horns) greet you as you pull onto the pier to park (limited to the first 200 people). A great band will be playing on the pier, as the chefs provide a fun picnic in a beautiful and unique setting. During lunch, you’ll see a very special stunt show on the pier by World Champion Teach McNeil. Teach thrills crowds all around the world and you’ll stand within inches as he performs his gravity-defying stunts. After watching Teach, you’ll never look at riding a motorcycle the same way. The thrills keep coming as we give away over $4,000 in Door Prizes (see the next page for full listing). Menu includes: BBQ Chicken (served), Salad Buffet, Tossed Salad, Potato Salad, Cole Slaw, Baked Beans, Rolls & Butter, 12oz. Bottles of Soda. Saturday 10:30a-3pm | LG Steamboat Dock After the Party on the Pier...Americade’s not over! There’s still LOTS to do: Americade’s EXPO (see pg 34/35).......... 9a-5pm Cruisin’ Lake George (pg 26)........................ 2pm Americade Concert Series (pg 58) Tony Mancuso-DJ........................... 5:30pm Big Sky Country.............................. 6:30pm Brandon Ray.................................. 7:35pm Craig Morgan...................................... 9pm Lake George Rotary $ or M/C Drawing...... 7:20pm Comedy Show w/Alonzo Bodden (pg 40) ��������� 8pm Thanks for hanging out with us for the week!
