If you've never done it how would you know? Some story told by another could be grossly exaggerated. I find it more accurate to cast my own opinion.

I will not be sharing my secrets but its not that hard to figure out....with that said...I have yet to sit in traffic more than a block in all the years.....we camp right in town and ride everywhere in a group we have no issue getting thru and around town...we always get a pk spot on main at anytime of the day.

Most (not all) of the horror stories are told by people that have never been. They heard from a guy that they ride with, that has a mechanic that bought a bike from a guy that is married to a woman that used to date a guy that once rode with a guy that has a neighbor that went once.

Three shootings each day of the rally, no fewer than a DUI arrest per hour, and you can't buy a beer for less than $16. It's true - I read it on the Internets! LOL!

I was pleasantly surprised at what the reality is!

So. You guys are saying if one million bikers descend on Sturgis for the 75th, there wouldn't be any traffic jam at all. REALLY!!!

Oh by the way. Yes I know people that have there. And I have been offered a trailered ride there for my Sporty. No Thanks, not this year anyways.

Also, I've seen many YouTube videos of backed up stopped traffic. Now just tell me I'm blind.

Oh, there's definitely traffic! And the bike will get warm! But, it's not the "OMG, my bike us melting because I haven't moved for 45 minutes!" event that many would have you think! LOL!

Well, Just don't come on here saying that people don't know people that has been there. You don't know me and I don't know you.
