The idea behind the B&B gathering was to allow vintage and classic motorcycle enthusiasts to show their prized possessions; however, as we have grown, we encourage all motorcycle enthusiasts to bring their prized possession and story share with all. Enjoy some great breakfast, as all are welcome to come out.

Meeting the 3rd Sunday of every month in Cold Spring NY, Bikes & Breakfast is the perfect opportunity to enjoy a quaint town & see some vintage motorcycles. Turnout is less in winter, but even in 20F weather, there are usually at least 10 bikes to show up.

Cold Starts located directly in Cold Spring has been sponsoring with coffee & snacks. They are a motorcycle specific clothing store located on the main drag. With the colder weather, we may meet in the shop instead of at the Depot, so if you don’t see anyone at the Depot, try the shop up the street.

Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride

The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride was founded in Sydney, Australia, by Mark Hawwa. It was inspired by a photo of TV Show Mad Men’s Don Draper astride a classic motorcycle and wearing his finest suit. Mark decided a themed ride would be a great way of connecting niche motorcycle enthusiasts and communities while raising funds to support the men in our lives.

Intro to Wilderness & First-Aid for Riders
2024-02-03 16:30 - 19:00 | Touratech, 67 Federal Road, Brookfield, Connecticut, 06804, United States
We spend lots of money on equipment for riding, riders training, trips and farkles. But when it comes to safety and first aid, many people don’t even carry the basic first aid kit. Riders rely on their cell phones even when there may be no service and basic knowledge of their mini-GPS is lacking. Lots of times people on my riding team say, “We have you Doc, so we are good!” Well, what if your medical person goes down?

In this hands-on class, we will discuss the fundamentals of rider safety off road, what to carry as a bare minimum, preparing for an off-road trip or an overnight stay in the woods. We will learn how to recognize health emergencies and practice basic lifesaving/first aid skill s that everyone on your team should know. Lastly, we will practice how and what to communicate to EMS personnel using different tools from GPS, phones and more.

Who is your instructor

For those looking for more formal accommodations, they have also secured alternate lodging at a Best Western, which is conveniently located only four miles away from the lodge, in Rutland, VT. As always, riders are welcome to find accommodations anywhere they would like. Due to the unique situation of having the lodge, and to help keep costs down, they are offering a package deal for this event. This includes the registration fee, lodging for five nights, Sunday afternoon thru Friday morning, as well as an informal welcome barbecue Sunday evening. Dinner for four nights, a continental breakfast, Monday thru Friday, and a barbecue lunch. Total cost is $550. If you are staying elsewhere, the standard registration fee is $100. The lodge is similar to a hostel. It has eleven bunk rooms, a finished third floor with additional beds, a commercial kitchen, a huge barn out back with a pool table, foosball table, and a TV Room. They will work to keep friends in the same room, and also try to avoid using the top bunks. You are required to bring your own towel, pillow, and sleeping bag or linens. They have to limit the riders staying at the lodge to forty, to avoid overcrowding. They anticipate this will fill up quickly, so if you plan on staying at the lodge, please register ASAP.

WBMC is planning a (4) day ride in the Adirondacks in August using my brother Scott’s Airbnb farmhouse (shown below) as basecamp…

It has (4) bed rooms with (2) sleep-able couches and a big backyard for tents … and we another lodging option 15-20 minutes away… and there are other Airbnbs in the area, etc.

The main farm house now looks to be booked full with (8) members responding in the affirmative. So, will also use my small cabin which is approx 15-20 mins away.

It’s located remote from town, so not walkable to restaurants…. The plan is to hang out at the end of the day around the campfire with some burgers.Or we could order some pizzas and bring them in Or ride to a multitude of restaurants 15 minutes or so away

It’s in a very nice riding area that’s 70 miles from Lake Placid or Tupper Lake, 20 miles from Lake George village, 40 miles from the ferry to VT
