Ditto on reservations. I thought I would try it one yr. without making reserv. and ended up almost in St. Augustine before I found a room. Also stay away from the real cheap rooms because the sheets are guaranteed to be stuck together.

Yea, Cabbage Patch, Iron Horse, and The Boot Hill Saloon is a given. Haven't been there since 2002 but wouldn't mind going back.

Plenty of good places to go. Make sure you hit the racetrack and mainstreet. Take a big coat and alot of money. Pretty dang cold this past year. Have fun and don't be in a rush, take time to take it all in.

I was planing on going to sturgis in 2011 but after I watched a show last nite you can't have apes that are over your shoulder. I'm a D.A.B so I really don't feel like getting harassed so maybe switching up and doing Daytona do they have silly *** laws like that over there
