shoemaker Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 (edited) Friday the 13th....any Friday the 13th in Port Dover Ontario. It may not have the big name bands and attractions of Sturgis but if you're into motorcycles,this is the place to be.While Sturgis gets 600K bikes over 10 days,Dover gets 100k in one day and by Saturday noon you wouldn't know there was a rally.Haven't had so much fun in a long time.Arrived Thursday and left Saturday.Plenty of bikes,beverages and babes (a few topless )We met people from NY,KY,MI,Oh and even a group from New Zealand.Those that had been to Sturgis said they enjoyed this more.Billed as Canada's largest motorcycle gathering.Estimated at 85000 bikes this year.Not bad for May and the weather forecast.It actually was amazing.Partly sunny and in the 80s.Literally miles of bikes.Looking forward to July next year. http://www.pd13.com/content/8/Friday-13th-Dates Edited May 16, 2011 by shoemaker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoemaker Posted May 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 Check around Youtube or Facebook for some good links and video.It doesn't get a whole lot of advertising.Last weekends was the 30th anniversary and the 51st PD13.Cool thing is to see all the boats that people arrive by.This year someone flew in with a float plane and parked it on the beach. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0gM6s_xB3Q Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
