Love Ride 25 - where to stay?
Any recommendations on places to go or to avoid? Is the Glendale area and/or Burbank airport area a good place to stay or am I going to come out the next morning and find my bike gone?

The Glendale Hilton is probably the safest place to stay, underground garage that is secured, have to go through guard gate to leave. The Hilton is a few miles from the starting point at Glendale HD. Americana is a new shopping area by the Glendale Galleria that is nice place to hang out or see a movie.

Yeah, that's where I wanted but it is booked up. Oh well, I'll just find somewhere along Colorado. Thanks!

I would stay somewhere by the Fairplex, ya just get up in the morning, ride into Glendale, then ride to the fairplex with everyone, and your close to your room at the end of the day, instead of having to ride back to Glendale after the event is over.

You could try Universal City, either the Sheraton or the Hilton, it's a relatively short ride in the morning to Glendale and both are near Citywalk so stuff to do the night before. Both have secured parking, pass through a guard on way out.

Yeah, go ahead and give me all the crap you want. I figure going on the Love Ride is one of those things to check off on the "to do" list - right between spending a night in jail and boning a fat chick.
FWIW, I don't own a trailer but have been plucked from the side of the freeway by a guy who did, so I don't knock them too much anymore - they do have uses.

Uhh, am I missing something - Who was giving you crap?
Love Ride is great fun, especially the people and poseur watching, gone for 20 years now, and will be working the trade show this year too.

Crap in this case meaning "good natured ribbing about trailering my bike". Should have added one of these...
