Default I'll skip Sturgis...

I am really not into being around so many people at all much less for an extended period of time. I wish you all well who do go. Just wanted to state my peace...

I want to definitely tour the area but not with 500,000 other bikes.

I'll go someday, but I have more important things. Don't mind the big crowds, far more hot rides to gawk at.

And the bikes are cool, too.

Sturgis... The good, the bad, the ugly and the uglier.

Probably once in my lifetime. I'd also like to take the family when the rally's not going on. It'd be a great experience for the kids.
