There will be an Allis Chalmers tractor caravan ride to the upcoming Gathering of the Orange in Laporte, Indiana which is running June 20-23.  This caravan ride is a two day ride beginning June 18^th at Holiday City, Ohio (northeast of Montpelier, Ohio and just off Interstate 80).  Our route of backroad travel has us headed west through rolling hills and the heart of Amish country across northern Indiana.  Our first day has us leaving at 7:30am EST traveling 77 miles with an overnight stop in Goshen, Indiana.  The second day of the ride has us leaving Goshen at 7:30am EST and traveling 62 miles to the showgrounds at Laporte, Indiana with an arrival time between 2:00 and 3:00pm CST.

This is an all Allis Chalmers caravan with tractors that can maintain a minimum of 10 mph.  If you have ever wanted to make one of these rides which is full of adventure, camaraderie and just plain fun you would be wise to make plans to join us June 18^th and 19^th to extend your Gathering of the Orange experience this month in Laporte.  Opportunities like this don’t come around much for a tractor ride like this very often.
