Wussing out.................;-)
Well,
Plans have changed. I'm making my first trip out to Sturgis this year and I'm ultra excited. Counting down the days. I have a room at the Ironhorse Inn in Whitewood. Anyone been there? My original plan was to leave sunday afternoon and ride out there. (Live in Minneapolis.) I also planned on bringing the wife with. Which is equally exciting because I rarely get her on the bike these days. Child, work, busy lives, blah blah blah. She said she'd be coming with if she wasn't pregnant. Guess what?......................she's pregnant. Of course we're very excited to have another little peanut in the house but I must say I was a little bummed. I could'nt expect her to endure a minimum 10 hour ride out there, three days of more riding and the same long trip home. (We were looking at roughly 2000 miles in four days.) Yesterday she brought it up and said she was really disapointed about not coming with and that she knew how much it meant to me. Well I explained to her that bringing her with me was more important to me than being the "I RODE mine to Sturgis" guy. So now we're trailering the bike out there.
To tell you the truth the more I think about it, it'll actually be kind of nice. We can pack much more of our crap, we won't have to live off of resturaunts and concession stands for four days, we'll have more energy reserved for riding once we're our there and so on.
Maybe being a wuss isn't so bad after all......................................

I have a buddy who's wife trailers the camper they have while he rides. That is the best of both worlds. He gets to ride and has an air conditioned room to stay in. If you live in Minneapolis you can run out there the week before sturgis take a picture then go home get the trailer go back out there and get your I rode mine sticker. The sticker does not say what dates just the year.
