Bike Week 2006
This year's bike week could have some extra curricular activity going on which could add to the expense of law enforcement. This week in Connecticut the leader of a local "Hells Angels" club was shot and killed while riding his bike on I-95. Word is that rival club "Outlaws" were to blame. Several days after incident police received word of a "hit' being put out on other gang members. These things have a way of going on and on. I know the "Bike week" brings in thousands of people during an otherwise slow week and is good for private vendors and buisness, but at what cost to the taxpayers? Having been in the Loconia area fishing during bike week, I've noticed that by far the majority of participants are of the older generation just having a good time, but as usual, it only takes a small number to screw things up.Traditions are hard to break. Let's hope that all remains calm.
