They advertise being able to get back "in ten minutes."
Most nights it takes over an hour to get from downtown to Full Throttle. And it's only 2 miles. Better head out early and get home late. Does look like there might be a road to bypass Sturgis if heading to Rapid or Custer, Cemetery Drive/Old Stone Road.

If I remember right, that road is partially gravel, and last summer was under water during Sturgis week.
