Alternative to sturgis

[clint44]

Sure wish it was possible to attend this year's event but our trike may still be at Hannigan,on those dates.

How's the 57 running,Pepper? Kinda miss ours,sometimes.

Hi Clint, It's good to hear from you. Bossy is running fine. I'm really looking forward to the ride to Deadwood. It will be great being there without the extra Sturgis crowds. If you can't make in this year there's always next year. First Gold committed to sponsor it for 5 years. Hannigan does a great conversion I'm sure you will be very happy with it. Post some pictures.

I'm staying in Mitchell on Wednesday also... arrival time unknown.

Don't know when I can leave from home and it's a 700 mile leg for me.

Leaving very early on Thursday to Devils Tower, then swing back to Deadwood to spend the day/night.

Made it back from the event. Good turnout, good folks. Got to see a lot of the country.

Will probably attend next year.

Got plenty of pics.

Got home and had to mount and put on a new front tire, new battery, oil change, and having a Goldwing, spend most of the %^&*$# time putting the passenger seat grips back on. :xzqxz:

I'll post some later.

I'm sure there are others who have some nice shots.

How about posting some pics of the event? We are very interested in attending,next year.

Hey Clint...I'll post some photos as soon as my wife gets home with the cameras. We left Deadwood late Sunday morning, drove a few hundred miles and called it a day. Monday morning I took off on Bossie and rode the remaining 800 miles non stop except for fuel stops and one meal break. I'm getting too old for that crap. Beautiful country and a lot of nice people. I can't wait for next year!

Final Count

This is the final count for the Deadwood Rally.

 

[clint44]

Wow,sounds like you had a heckuva turnout,Pepper! Sherry and I will definitely try to attend in 2016.
Deadwood is a great location,too. That event may turn into a must-attend ride for trike riders,if not already.

 

[FuzzyWuzHe]

I'm planning on it ... ... do they have a camper place or just hotels?

 

[Gunner45]

Days of 76 has a campground just across the road from First Gold (Sponsor) and I know there is a KOA nearby. This years rides all started at the Days of 76 Museum parking lot.
