Anyone Else Going To Sturgis?!

Im thinkin about it....I have a bunch of days off in June & July so finding some some more in August is gonna cost me....but it just may be worth it.

Sturgis 07

we are going leaving colorado springs on August 4th, staying in Rapid City, staying 5 or 6 days. headed to California next Staurday and doing the grand Canyon Skywalk on the way home. About 3,000 miles in 8 days.

Drop me a line if you are interested in making a meet with some of us! Trying to get a few people from this forum together for a beer and bullsh*t session.

Not sure when I'm gonna get there....work thing. It'd be funny to run into someone from from cowtown down in South Dakota but that happened to me last year...it's a small world. I'm getting tires put onto the "truck" a FLHTCI, I'll freshen the fluids, snug up some fasteners and should be ready to go. gotta make sure 212 ain't dug up and eeeezzzzz there you go......ride safe all getting there.

Sleepy, send me a message at leafs_and_fins_fan@hotmail.com if you are interested in meeting up... that way we can exchange #s, etc. So far AFNurse & I are going to try and make a meet. Cheers!

To All -

I'm keeping an eye on this thread so I know how to find you guys if I can get my bike in the right shape to go.

I might try that Mt. View Campground in Spearfish this year for something different. I usually stay at Hg Heaven it's got nice new facilities but I may opt for somewhere I can actually sleep at night if you know what I mean

There are a lot of rides around Sturgis that take a day each. I'll list them just for fun.
1. Bad Lands - one long day
2. Needles Hwy - one day with Mt Rushmore.
3. Mt Rushmore & Crazy Horse - although I'll bet nothing is new on the Crazy Horse monument. That thing is just too big. I hope I'm wrong.
4. Devils Tower
5. Hewlett Wyo. on Wednesday (pantyless Wednesday) - used to be fun, but, there are too many cops now. :cussing: Still worth a try.
6. Black Hills - Great on the way in and in the early morning on the way home.
7. Dead Wood - Great town to hang out for a day and rest.
8. Several bars - Full Throttle, I forget the others :drunk:

Did I miss anything ??

Send me a private message if you don't want to post the actual meeting site.

Thanks,
T

Will do, once I get my end of things figured out better.

Just send me an email so that we can exchange cell phone #s... I have 2 or 3 or us now that are interested in meeting up. Hoping that we can get together for a beverage and/or head out for a run. Email is leafs_and_fins_fan@hotmail.com

This year the wife and I will get to Sturgis friday, 8/3 in the afternoon and leave fri or sat. One of the things we love about Sturgis is we make no plans on where to go or when to do it. Look at the maps and schedule of events each night and then decide where to go. We like the rides about as much as anything. If I can be of any help, just let me know.

Damn straight you can be of some help! I have NEVER been down that way before, and hear that it can be a bit of a zoo. Can I get your email address to drop you a line?

Hog Heaven Campground - FYI

I'm staying at Hog Heaven campground. I called the Mt. View Campground in Spearfish, but they where sold out of tent spots.

I check in at Hog Heaven on Tuesday Aug 7.

I'll check out probably Friday.

I just got an offer from my brother in law......he said his buddy was heading out to Sturgis and had 2 extra spots. I was confused, 2 extra spots I thought, hmmm, could I get the time off. I though for a while, and I actually considered it, until I heard he was trailering all the bikes out there with his motor home. Doesn't sound like a true "biker" outing to me. I think if I ever go, I will ride out there, ON my bike, not in front of it in a cage or motor home. (JMO) I don't think my friends would ever let me live that down.

I agree with you 100%!!! I understand if someone has to go a LONG, LONG, LONG way... otherwise, ride the damn thing!
