Who's going to the 105th from Mi? : V-Twin Forum: Harley Davidson Forums

Wondering who's going to Milwaukee for the 105th and what your route is going to be.

We're leaving on Tuesday afternoon from Farmington Hills and riding up to Alpena to pick up a couple people. Wednesday morning we head over the bridge, through the UP, and down to Appleton, WI. Then on Thursday morning, we'll roll into Brookfield to set up shop before heading over to Miller Park for the HOG festivities(really pissed about Aerosmith). Friday/Saturday are up in the air, but being a supplier to H-D, hoping to catch up with some of the folks I work with there, and of course the summerfest grounds. Sunday, taking the ferry over to Muskegon and riding home.

Anyone else doing that loop? What days and what towns are you staying in?

Nobody admitting their going, or just nobody riding there?

Heading out Tuesday morning from Forest Hill Md. meeting up in Shrewbury Pa. with about 20 other bikes and picking up 5 or 6 more along the Pa Turnpike, stopping for the night in Crawfordsville In onward Wed morning to our main stay in Kenosha Wi. about 35 miles south of Milwaukee. Heading home Sunday morning. Other than the concerts and the Museum Saturday morning, wife and I have no definite plans.

If you want to get outa the rat race for a few hours... go to Knuckleheads Bar & Grill in Eagle (w of Milwaukee 30 miles). Very biker friendly and fun roads.
Knuckle Fest will be going on and that never sucks.

Another Good Spots for LOTS of bike activities located a few miles from the Capitol Plant and Milwaukee Harley (24hr Party) is Bottoms Up Pub one block from 124th and Hampton.

My wife and I just got back from Milwaukee for the 105th celebration. We rode the Low Rider up there and it was a beautiful day. There were Harleys everywhere, it seemed like there was 50,000 bikes on the streets and in the parking lots. Today we saw War and Foghat play, War was pretty decent but Foghat was fantastic. Those guys jammed just as well as they did 20 years ago! Tomorrow we're going back the see Blue Oyster Cult and Bruce Springsteen. I'll let you guys know how they were tomorrow.
