Riders have been gathering at Weirs Beach on Lake Winnipesaukee since a 1916 gypsy tour, which makes Laconia Motorcycle Week the oldest rally in America, older than Sturgis by two decades. For nine days each June the lakeside boardwalk becomes a canyon of chrome. The 1965 riot got it nearly cancelled. The town decided the bikes were worth more than the quiet.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
