The Northeast Husky Gathering is coming at ya’ soon! This year’s event will be held 26 thru 28 August 2011. For those who are unaware of this annual event as it goes into its fifth year, it is a get-together of Husqvarna owners and riders.
The address is 3122 Duanesburg Churches Rd, Delanson, N.Y. 12053. (Arrows will be up on event days to facilitate guiding the Husky faithful) There is ample level parking.
There is an old school ribboned and bannered grass track MX Scrambles style track as well as a lengthy arrowed Enduro trail loop. You will meet good people to ride with and have an all-around good time. There's a huge raffle, with lots of stuff from event sponsors, including riding gear, bike 'bling' & accessories, and gift certificates. The Gathering is strictly for fun, not for profit. Proceeds from the event will help support several Team USA riders efforts at the 86th I.S.D.E in Finland.
You need to bring at least one Husqvarna or an any make vintage bike. (All non- water cooled non disc are welcome…if in doubt about what is vintage…ask us…we are lenient!) (Other modern makes ridden by a friend or family members are OK, as long as a “Sponsor” with a Husky or vintage is in attendance.) There is a vintage bike parade lap, a lot of Free riding and some scheduled fun events (accell/brake test, grass track challenge, vintage bike show, oldest bike, furthest travelled, mystery lap time pool, and other events!) Due to us Husky guys being a little older, many bring their spouse and/or girlfriend.
Registration fee per rider: -$50.00.
Non riding guests are -$15.00.
(no pre-registration this year but RSVP’s and any “Special requests/needs” will be welcomed and addressed.) There are also a few hotels nearby if you would like.
As said, it is a fundraiser for some of our own who will represent the USA at the 6 days and it all goes to them after the minimal expenses for the event are paid. The fee also includes a 2 sided full color event T-shirt for all attendees! Primitive Camping is available and it means a nice level field......no hookups but also 2 porta potties and my house is literally across the street if anyone needs anything from it.........i.e. water, laundry, crashed in a mud hole and need a shower, and of course the big screen at night with bike videos and a refreshing beverage.
This is not a dealer demo event. However, Husky has attended in the past and brought some next year model bikes that were prototypes for us to try. We always have at least 3 Husky Dealerships attend and they are top shelf! There also will probably be the current model year bike you are looking at with one of the attendees and we are a good crowd for "letting a bud take your bike for a rip."
