So close you can almost taste it...
--Plans Finalized--
We're riding - heading out from Ft Mac to Revelstoke, BC. Then we're gooing to go through Kaslo and Nakusp with visions of DH1 BC. Cross into Idaho and bee line to Clarkston Wa. We're taking in the crazy winding road north of Lewiston into town...
Next Day Lolo pass and on to Red Lodge.
Red Lodge to Cody via Beartooth Pass. Enroute to the Chiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiip we're gonna cut north to Belle Fourche and dodge the intro-traffic of Sturgis.
I do not want to know how much has been spent in preparation for the trip thus far. Mods this year have all been for this ride:
Redverz tent
Love Jugs
Clearwater Darla LED lights
HD Chrome brake pedal and shift lever
Bunch of chrome HW
Forced induction air cleaner from S&S
Chrome 2:1 Supermeg
Got the BR Handlebars installed and all associated cables
Rivera Primo VPC
I'm sure there is more....

Road Master
When you get to Cody (after riding Chief Joseph) and are heading east there are 2 east bound roads - 14 and 14A. State 14 goes around the Bighorn Range, 14A goes over the range. I highly recommend 14A.. Once you get to Sheridan, take 14/16 e instead of I90E both go to Gillette, 14 from Sheridan is a nice ride. From Gillette, I90e to Moorcroft and back onto 14N/E to Devils Tower, then on to Sturgis.

Excellent, we'll have a look at 14A.
We're thinking on saving Devil's Tower for a day ride.But we are looping around Sturgis as we'll be tired, and just need to get base setup.

Ride safe everyone

A big thank-you. We took 14A over the big horns and it was well worth it! Thanks for the recommendation. (Picture is from pull out near 14A summit)
