If you want to tour the plant then make sure you do it
the first day of the rally. Tours of the plant are only
available Monday - Friday. See important tour information on the
H-D website.
The weather in this part of the country can do almost
anything. You should be prepared for warmer
weather, but cooler weather, rain and sometimes severe
storms is possible.
Climatological information for the area can be found
here.
The
trip planner says we should expect highs near 83
degrees with overnight lows of 61. The dew point
should be 64 degrees so expect moisture on the grass
when you wake up. Skies should me mostly sunny
with a warm 8 mph wind from the south. There will
be a 19% chance of precipitation.
Nearly
1.9 million people call Greater Kansas City home. Ours
is a culturally diverse metropolitan area with above
average discretionary income and an astounding appetite
for sports and entertainment.
The area boasts not less than
six pro-sports teams, more than a
dozen theatres,
resident symphony,
ballet company and
opera.
Add to that our
music festivals,
collegiate sports,
casinos,
auto,
horse and dog racing, and you have an incredible
menu of attractions that simply whets the appetite for
more.
