The journey's end!!
Lieutenant Schapiro got back to me while I was on the road and said he would get me more for motorcycle officers to meet us at the border. The lead officer called me back and said he would meet us at the Salem New Hampshire rest area and if the big rigs were with us we would keep on and they would join us or if we were separated to pull in and they would join us and wait until we were all together to continue on.
At this point I would like to thank the Minutemen of New York who were there the night before but were unable to wait until we got in but showed up the next morning, they helped us with blocking traffic and getting the rigs out on the highway bound for Massachusetts. They rode with us all the way through Connecticut to the mass pike! Thank you gentlemen!
At the mass pike we picked up a Massachusetts CVMA member Ray "Baghdaddy" LeBeau Who rode with us all the way to Laconia and spent a lot of the week during bike week up there with us! Thank you brother Ray!
The rigs rolled in to the Salem rest stop and we were together once more to ride in to Manchester Harley Davidson altogether with police escort. And once again found many people who not only have little of no regard for us traveling as a caravan but also had no regard for the state troopers on their bikes as well!
We made it to Manchester Harley Davidson where there was a large crowd there to welcome us including some of my brothers and sisters from chapter 5-1 of the CVMA!
It was not yet time to relax however because we still had to get to Laconia! And I would be working with the state police as we went up I 93 with blocking traffic from the on ramps from cutting into us.
And here again when we arrived in Laconia it was several hours before we were able to stop working and relax as the trucks had to be maneuvered into the parking lot where they would stay for the next week and a half, unload the vehicles and the motorcycles and set up for Laconia bike week.
