Every spring, hundreds of thousands of
bikers roar into New Hampshire’s Lake
Winnipesaukee region for LaconiaMotor-
cycle Week, the oldest rally of its kind in
the U.S. My Vulcan-riding father-in-law,
Bob, is one of them. Bob has been riding
motorcycles since the 1970s, most recently
with a Florida group he founded called
the Melbourne Beach Marauders. When
he rides, he wears a Harley-Davidson
T-shirt withflames down the sleeves (and
fights with his wife if she won’t let him
wear it out to dinner). He makes his own
leather saddlebags in his garage.
