    school me on some beta for Lake George, NY

    what it says yo!

    my Dad goes to americade (motorcycle rally) every year. but my Mom just broke her foot and they cant go. they already paid for 3 nights (and some stupid harley cruise on saturday), so, we're going.

    likes:
    -mountain biking (more single track than downhill)
    -beach/swimming/frisbee if its gonna be freakishly hot like this weekend
    -fishing
    -motorcycles (yes, I'm aware that it is a motorcycle rally and there will be a gajillion bikes there, and tons of riding events, but we're not riding there, so we can take our mountain bikes. BUT apparantly you can demo all kinds of bikes there from the different manufacturers, for a couple hours at a time) so we will ride.
    -eating good food
    -drinking beer


    whatcha got? I already got a good breakfast place and a good street ride

    I use this site for maps of areas that I'm unfamiliar with http://www.cnyhiking.com/

    Some stuff here too http://www.bikerag.com/bike_trail_maps_text_NY.htm

    And here http://www.singletracks.com/New-York...trails_33.html

    Get to saratoga springs if you can..some riding there and nice place to eat some decent food and/or escape the jersey shore crowd in lake george
    If it's green, smoke it...if it's pink, poke it

    Again, go to Saratoga. The town of Lake George is one of my least favorite places up there. A traffic filled horror show of obesity and, yeah, jersey shore types. Christ, there's fucking arcades. Add 10000 bikers, and, well.....
    There is no good food there.

    Edit: There's a ton of spillover from Americade into Saratoga, so, you'll get the culture. I should know, I lived on Broadway. It was really fucking loud. And then Lake George is an easy highway drive, maybe twenty minutes. Do not drive drunk up there.

    I haven't been to lake George since I was 14 I think...so don't know about beer joints (I didn't know you could even smoke beer....nevermind). We stayed at this place e called Canoe Island Lodge that had its own private island about 3 miles "offshore". From a young kid's standpoint it would have been fun...they had play forts and a great video arcade, etc...but from a 14 yr old's. perspective it was a little lame. They did have nice little cottages, though.
    Lake George has a real big antique powerboat scene
    ...antique wooden Chris Craft and Hackercraft by the dozens. Beautiful boats with silly amounts of varnish.
