2016 Rolling Thru New Hampshire

7rtnhcrop-1September 19 – 22, 2016

Actual quotes from 2015 Rolling Thru New Hampshire Attendees:

“Wowowowoowowowowowooweeee !!!!!!”

“Really perfect”

“A short tour of that caliber at home (if we could even find one)…would cost at least double or more.”

“Everything about this was excellent”

“You killed me.. it was so nice !!!!!!!!”

“Entire staff was terrific throughout the tour, very friendly, helpful and welcoming.”

Over the years, we’ve received many requests to bring you to the mountains and lakes of New Hampshire.  In 2015 we did, finding the perfect combination of great roads, lodging, stunning destinations and fantastic meals.  The 2015 attendees LOVED it, calling it “One of the Best Tours Ever.” 

The tour includes seven meals, guided tours along incredible routes, amazing five star destinations, and a sunset boat cruise.  You’ll stay in a gorgeous, quaint inn on the largest lake in NH, in historic Wolfeboro, America’s oldest summer resort and not far from where “On Golden Pond” was filmed. It’s a very picturesque New England town, where there’s a good chance that you’ll hear some loons as you stroll along the Inn’s waterfront.

On your first night, you’ll kick off Rolling Thru New Hampshire with a great welcome party and dinner in the Inn, overlooking the lake.

On the second day, following breakfast, we’ll follow our experienced local guides along omnimodifiedthe best winding roads along the shores of picturesque Lake Winnipesaukee and enjoy an outstanding lunch at The Newfound Lake Inn, one of the top 5 restaurants in NH, overlooking another gorgeous lake. Following the day’s ride, you’ll have the night to yourself, exploring Wolfeboro.

Your third day will be an amazing one: Following breakfast, you’ll ride along the famous, twisting Kancamagus Highway (one of the best roads in the U.S.), through the jaw-dropping White Mountain National forest, to an elegant lunch at the breathtaking Omni Mount Washington Resort, a National Historic Landmark. At night, you’ll enjoy a feast at the Inn, with music, lake views and great memories.

On your final day, we’ll gather for one last (great) breakfast, share stories and photos, and say goodbye (until next year’s adventure).

We’re really excited to share RTNH with you. The tour is a very high end tour, and we’re confident it will be an instant favorite. But…there are only 80 spots available, so it WILL sell out fast.

Thursday – Farewell Breakfast

After enjoying our final breakfast of the tour at The Wolfeboro Inn, we’ll gather for a “class photo” to remind ourselves of all the fun and friendship we’ve had in 4 short days.


Optional (Guided) Tour:

Some may elect to do an exciting self-guided ride up the Mount Washington Auto (toll) Road. Because it is world famous for having the most extreme and erratic weather, and because the road is often closed to motorcycles because of that, this ride would be very weather-dependent. We didn’t include it in the tour because of this. Even though the toll road is only 7.6 miles long, and though it’s possible to do a round trip from the toll gate in less than 90 minutes, one should allow 3 hours for this adventure. Until 2010, the weather observatory on the summit held the record for the highest wind gust directly measured at the Earth’s surface, 231 mph, on April 12, 1934. In September, the average high temperature at the 6,288 foot summit is in the high 40s (f.) Average wind speed up there is about 50mph with a 30% chance of precipitation in September.

The average grade is 12% and there are no guardrails. As the sign at the base says: “If you have a fear of heights, you may not appreciate this driving experience”.

If you choose to do this ride, you may choose to extend your stay at our hotel and we’d be happy to help you with any needed arrangements (book your room through us to save money). If you’re among the few, the brave, the crazy, we will lead a group to the bottom of the mountain on Thursday following breakfast, weather permitting. Because this micro-tour is outside the tour’s official itinerary, the toll fee would be separate. We’ll wrangle you a group discount if possible.
