Thought it would be interesting to see where people are going besides Sturgis for their vacation.

The ROT rally in Austin Texas is a great one. Usually the first week of June. Out here the Laughlin River Run is good as is the Street Vibrations in Reno.

Did Sturgis last year, and the Tail of the Dragon the year before (during the time of Sturgis). This year we're going to Branson MO. Heard it's beautiful riding there so we're going to check it out. Had enough of Sturgis during the rally, not going to do it again.

Been to Sturgis three times in the past 7 years. That is plenty. Last year the trip was Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Wyoming, Montana. 2009 was a 15 state run over to Ohio and then down the Natchez Trace Trail and back through TX, NM, AZ, etc. This summer we're making a run over to the Dragons Tail, Charlotte NC and then looping back through the Michigan Upper Peninsula, WI, MN, SD, WY, etc. 5900 miles, 15 days, should be a good trip.

I'll just be riding somewhere in New England during the Sturgis rally. Probably pass through Sturgis and spend some time in the Black Hills later in the year.

Been to the rally several times, had fun, but don't have any desire to do it again. Don't want to deal with the crowds, drunks, a-holes or cops during rally time.
