American Chopper Travel Ideas
Go from seeing the show to seeing it in person in Newburgh New York, if you love American Chopper then this is a place to visit. This is after were the show take place, but is more known by the county and less by the name of the actual town. First a little bit about Newburgh as it is a principal city of the metropolitan area that encompasses Poughkeepsie, Newburgh and Middletown. The city itself is located about 90 miles south of Albany on the Hudson river and was founded in the early 18th century. It has a rich history as it served as the headquarters for the Continental Army during the American Revolution. The American Chopper is a reality television series hasn’t been around as long as the city that they located in, but has seen its own revolution as it went from one series to a new incarnation of the show. While not quite as important as being the headquarters of the Continental Army from 1782 to the later half of 1783. There is a tale of why a street in Newburgh once called Kings Highway the north-south street behind the headquarters was renamed. The story goes that George Washing received the famous Newburgh letter that he become king here in this location. The response from Washington was a vigiorous rebuke of the idea and thus the street was renamed in honor of Washington’s actions. Finding ones self in Newburgh offers the chance to visit the shop seen in American Chopper and relive the past as well, a good combination for party supplies. There is a couple of blocks of the oldest part of the city that have been declared a historic district in an effort to preserve the cities past while the future of modern television is recording just down the road.
