^^^ what he said ^^^

I’ve gone 4 out of the last 5 years and I just can’t get enough. I go about two days before the rally and two during the rally. 1550 mile trip one way for me. I love getting the, “You rode all the way up here??!







Sorry, I’m way off topic lol

 

Yea Bucket list.

 

maybe some day..... too many other great places around the country to hit. I would love to walk down main street once during the rally. But would really love to ride more than walk!!! Regardless, hope that those of you that do go have a good and safe trip!!

 

There are 3 relatively new motels off of I-90 on the east end of Rapid City that always have a vacancy sign posted even during the 75th. Their rate during Sturgis is $250/night. Can't recall their brands. They are all 4 to 5 story.

I have gone 14 of the last 15 years and never run out of places to ride.

 

You can look here. http://www.ironhorseinnsturgis.com They had rooms all the way up till the first day of last years Rally. Also it’s a few miles away from downtown Sturgis.

 

We booked a room through Airbnb . Thanks for the input from other members. It’s snowing big time in western Illinois. It’s a little hard to imagine riding now but looking forward to the trip.

 

what are they gonna say when I ride my Panhead the whole way?

 

Cool bike, Tony.

 

This is the first and likely only chance im going to get to go to sturgis. i liveless than 500 miles away and the whole family will be gone so why not? Granted its not a long ride, but you better believe i will be riding the sporty 883. Im anning on buying a military shelter half and camping at one of the campsites there. Big enough for just me and plenty small enough to pack on the bike. Taking a change of clothes and clean socks. No other riding gear. If it rains (i know it will) then ill just get wet. Im a former infantryman so ill be all set. Lol I just need recommendations on campsites. Thinking of glencoe only because its the only one i know of.

 

What are you looking for in the rally? Are you a partier? Or are you looking to sleep deeply and rise early?
