Sturgis 2014
The plan is coming together nicely. GF and I are going out with another couple for the 74th Annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. It'll be the first time for all of us. We'll be leaving Vt on the Wednesday...

Ride out to Hulett, WY on Wednesday of bike week, good party ... it's near Devils' Tower and that is worth a stop.. a bit over an hour from Sturgis . Go up Spearfish Canyon, stop at the lodge at the top for one of their bloody mary's .. then head to Deadwood. Make sure you get to Custer State park,Needles Highway and Mt. Rushmore along with a stop in Keystone.
The Badlands is also worth a ride thru, though a bit further away.
We also do a 3 day trip from FL to get out there. Going into Sturgis during the day can be a bit of a challenge with all the traffic, what we do is stop at the KOA in Belvidere, it right off the interstate. Relax and then head into Sturgis in the a.m before traffic builds up. It's about 2 hrs from the KOA to the Sturgis exit
There is lots of great riding out there and lots of back roads to explore.
We won't be there this year , but probably will go for the 75th
