BW rooms sold out? I scored one at 2:30pm yesterday.
Gettysburg will be my first Raid too. Not sure what to expect myself. Anyways worst case scenario is that I can always go solo and explore some of PA's roads and history. I have heard Raids are more of a civilized group thing, not a Sturgis/Daytona. (Although there are certain attributes of Sturgis/Daytona that will be missed too).
Go to
www.tripadvisor.com to get a list of recommended hotels in the area, I believe most are within a mile of the BW anyways.
