rallytime






The annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in Stugis, South Dakota, with an estimated 500,000 attendance.

After watching and hearing the bikes all week, we had to go see what the fuss was all about. Much ado. Like a car show (everyone taking pictures of bikes), with festival food (sausages/peppers and onions, corn dogs). Bikes parading up and down the streets. A few bars but not near as many as Key West. Guess you have to be a biker to appreciate all this. 

The hype is high for next year's rally - the 75th annual. Predictions are for 800,000 to 1 million people to attend. Hopefully we will be far away from here by then.

So checked that off the list, been there done that. They take a group photo twice a day, we got in!
