NOT TOO BUSY IN STURGIS.

I have no desire to be there. I'm pretty sure many guys our age have been there and done that and have the t-shirt and the younger gen guys feel out of place on their scooters.

I am wearing my 2004 official rally t shirt today, it was the first one I grabbed out of my collection this morning;)
 
I have watched the live-cams for the last few years and this year was certainty not the biggest turn out. All the street barricades for "motorcycle only" have been removed today. The streets are now all open for traffic. It's over for another year..... Jim
 
The wife and I have attended 19 of the last 20 years at Sturgis. It is very much an acquired taste.... You either enjoy watching stupid people, or you don't.... :)

It had a "busy" feel for us this year, especially compared to the past few..... We go early and leave early, and the week before had noticeably more people.

Still lower on vendors than say 10 years ago, especially in the cities away from downtown. Maybe the increase in crowds will bring them back???

My first Sturgis was my last. Rolled through in 73, didn't stop long enough to take a leak.:) I was on the road for a while didn't know anything about it. I was always gettin asked are you going to Sturgis? Told my wife one more person asks and we're going. From what I could see there were already enough assholes there so they didn't need me.:laugh:
 
We were there on Friday afternoon...pretty good crowd....hot!

Rode back through on a Sunday ride and noticeable lessening of traffic....vehicles and people. No real big reduction on prices from the vendors....t-shirts still at $15.

By Monday afternoon, SD DOT was taking down the temporary stop/go lights out in the Hills.

Another Rally done!
