One thing everyone needs to understand....the entire population of SD is only about 1.5 million. Add 500,000 for one 10 day period in an area 50 x 150 miles, and everything breaks down.

Default I figured...
I was asking for trouble when I posted that question...

While I would like to say I only need wifi to upload pictures (which, yes I will be doing)... I also need to keep taps on the job back home.

I will be staying in one of the cabins at TFS.. arriving Saturday 'bout 2pm and staying thru the following Friday.

First time in Sturgis and I am really looking forward to it!

Default Lots of $$$
yeah MNPG.. that seems to be a common suggestion for Sturgis. Got the bike all gassed up and ready to go.

Started packing gear tonight... got the basics already onboard (does a 1.75 of Makers Mark count as an essential????)

Hell yes it's essential, just not sure if it is enough. I stay just up the road from you. Share your cabin # and I will share my jack if you share your makers mark. We spend some time at fts, maybe we will meet,WR.
