Schnot, most of us think you had a good gig if you was working behind those wonderful bar babes at Monkey Rock!! So your complaints are not being heard here!!!


Welcome to Glencoe and I'm sure you will meet most of us along the alley. I'll be riding a blue RZR with blue LED pole on rear and wife will be blonde pig-tailed topless (or better) riding shotgun. Be sure to stop us and introduce yourself. There are thousands of great people at Glencoe so don't be shy.

Yeah I had a good time there for the most part. I got to see all the concerts for free anyway haha. It got a little sketchy on the last night when Guns and Roses played. Axel being Axel didnt show up until he was about an hour and a half late. That was the closest thing to a riot that I've ever experienced. Take 20,000 bikers whove been in the heat all day, add alcohol, and then tell them to **** off when they want their ticket money back since Axel is a no show.... lets just say I got a little nervous lol

Ill definitely look for the RZR with the pole. Now I just got to convince my brother to come along with me.

My last reply also brings up a question I've been wondering about. Is it possible to get into Glencoe without camping there or a wristband. I want to experience as much of Sturgis as I can and Glencoe is high on that list.

Yep, if you go to the Glencoe web site - glencoecamp dot com - and look for the FAQs you will see that you can visit 5 hours for 25 bucks. I strongly recommend doing this on Saturday 8/1 or Sunday 8/2 and come about 7pm and stay till midnight. Those days and hours will get you max enjoyment if you are looking to see naked ladies!


We are all friends so you can easily mooch a beer (or other bev) just about anywhere. My wife is usually packing a bottle of 1800 Silver on the RZR. She is very good about sharing (wink). If you don't have any beads to give away most ladies will be happy with a smile or nice comment. You can also show them something special yourself to repay them. Nothing but love and happiness along the alley!!

Perfect and thanks for the info on the best nights. Since we're pulling in on Sunday we'll be by on Sunday night. I saw that on the Glencoe site but didn't know if we had to know someone inside or not. Hopefully we'll be seeing you in about 5 weeks. MMmmmm 1800 Silver works but I'd better find some beads because I don't want to make your wife sick flashing old fat bald guy parts.

Default Awesome thread!

Man-oh-man I'm glad to have come across this thread! A TON of good info for FINALLY my first trip to the rally! I'm riding all the way from Southern California with a couple buddies. This just got me more pumped for it!

Hey, quick question, what kind of tent do you all bring on your bikes? I just scooped up a taller sissy bar for 2up and was planning on using it to strap a/my 2 person tent to. I have soft bags on either side of my FXDWG that I was going to put some skivvies and a couple changes of clothes and snacks, tools, and whatever else will fit that I might need. I'm just thinking of what size of tent to bring. Like I said, maybe a small 2 person tent will fit. I attached a pic of the bar. I may remove the pad. Any tips?
I also read about hail on occasion. I was thinking of bringing a tarp to throw over the scoot in the case of heavy rain/hail. Good or no?

Anyways, thanks!
-Doc

Like a bikers Disneyland. Happiest place on earth. See you all there.

Shopping can be interesting on the main drag.
We should be riding with one of my brothers. It's going to be killer!
