The Americade Scavenger Hunt will pass through Killington during
their annual celebration June 5-9 in Lake George. Motorcyclists
will enjoy a weeklong festival while touring in the beautiful
Adirondack and Green Mountains.
Celebrating their 30th year, Americade has become the world's
largest multi-brand motorcycle touring rally. Local estimates
indicate it attracts 50,000-100,000 annually, according to
Americade.
Last year, because of the bikers, the Grist Mill was full for
lunch every day of this week, says EDT Director Suzie Dundas
anecdotally. She expects hundreds if not thousands of bikers to
cross through town this week.
It is another good chance for Killington, and Vermont as a whole,
"to welcome bikers to town and show off the fact that Irene is a
thing of the past (at least in terms of road conditions,)" says
Dundas. Adding: "Not only is this great for businesses in town, but
it also will drive registration for The Killington Classic in
September, we expect, as the Classic is now managed by
Americade."
