we have a group going out, not to crazy about the route they are talking so I might meet them there. They are talking running thru Iowa and I see that taking another 2 hours to the ride. I say I-90 and get out there and ride. We can alway do Iowa another time

So far I plan on running solo. Exact dates are wide open. I live along I-90 so I am pointed in the right direction!

Finally nailed down the travel dates and route specifics last night! Going to ride from Santa Fe, up through SW Colorado and into Yellowstone, then on over. Leaving SF on the 29th & should arrive in the Sturgis area mid-day on Tue, Aug 5th. Will be shipping bikes back and flying home.

First timer here! Looking forward to it!!!!!

Whoever's there from the forum, maybe we can have a face to face. I have to pullout sometime on the third to get back to work, but plan to do a lot of riding between 27th and the 3rd. Let's hook up and chat. Name the spot though, because I really couldn't say where.
