The Laconia, New Hampshire City Council has postponed the 2020 Bike Week due to COVID-19, reports News Center Maine.
The event, originally scheduled for the week of June 13-June 21, brings thousands of bikers and tourists to the Lacona-Weirs Beach area every year. The Laconia City Council held a vote Monday, postponing the event to the week of August 22-August 30. Laconia Motorcycle Week Association Executive Director Charlie St. Clair said that if the COVID-19 situation has not improved by August, the organization will need to reassess when or if to hold the rally.
The postponement follows weeks of optimism that it would not be moved.
