With all due respect.....no you don't.

Cool pics, I was just a kid in the 60's but I still got hooked.

about 1977 central coast Calif

Loved those halcyon days.

That was a good time to be young.

Hey I know one of those two chicks towards the beginning, that's Pulsating Paula. The one with tattoos on her back, on the left. She's still around, does alot of picture touch ups and colorization. She's been around the bike scene for years.,,,

I think this may have been the last year that the park was open for camping, or close to. Due to "bad behavior" the park was closed during bike week in following years. I camped in the park the last year that camping was allowed. The stage show on top of a bus was pretty raunchy. A couple of Japanese bikes were burnt to the ground. At some point one night a huge explosion occurred, really loud. Drag races on the main road. The cops didn't dare enter the park, kind of hung out outside the gates. The next year it was closed so I went to the Buffalo Chip in later years. The last time I went to Sturgis was in 1986. Sure has changed.

The song chosen for it sucks ass...should've been something like Old Days (Chicago), Making Memories (Rush), American Pie (Don Mclean), Green Grass and High Tides (The Outlaws), Kodachrome (Paul Simon), Once in a Lifetime (Talking Heads), that's what I came up with kinda quick. Anything though would beat having to hear that skank, fugly wench Streisand in my head any more than 1 second.
