Default Sturgis 2023

Reading a story and the numbers are in, some will be horrified as they, the Sturgis City Council used cell phone data to count who attended.

Imagine that! I fully understand that prior they had them vehicle counters but as noted a bike could have two people and cars up to capacity.

Always a WAG in true number let alone close. Pretty close now.

Also, based possibly same data, cell phone ownership, over 65 is down, as expected however the numbers for younger attendees is up which is a positive as well as some support to the fact Harley FN Davidson isn’t going anywhere despite claims by a few.

Tax/extortion revenue is low but that’s probably because we all know public officials are skimmers.

A good read. No link. I post here on phone but read my ‘puter…can’t link with phone well and I don’t log on via my ‘puter.

Keloland media is website.

Ride On!

"...Zerbst said that this year’s attendees brought in $658,581 in sales tax revenue..."

Misprint? 600,000 generate a buck each?
