Northeast Spring Fling Rally [PA]

The COG Northeast SPRING FLING RALLY is headed back to Williamsport PA May 19 - 22.  

The historic Genetti Hotel is in a central downtown location within walking distance to many great restaurants, taverns, and two new brew pubs for evenings out off the bike!

The host city of Williamsport has so much to offer as a rally location and is only a day ride for many Northeast and North Central members. It takes minutes to be out of town, and the surrounding area has terrific riding and sightseeing. Take a ride to the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon overlook, the elk viewing area, grab a sammich at Wolfe’s General store in Slate Run, or ride to the summit of Hyner View State Park.
