made it to Sturgis today. My first time. So many bikes on the last 200 miles in it was great.
Up from SoCal west of Sierras, up though northern Nevada desert, into Idaho and overnight at jackson, wy. Then up through Grand Teton Nat Park, south part of Yellowstone and over to Cody last night. Today into SD staying in Spearfish, 20 miles out of Sturgis. here about 4 and into Sturgis for a couple of hours. Lots of sights and sounds.
Only here for a couple of days, Spearfish canyon, Custer, Mt rushmore, Badlands Nat Park . . . then another week or so to explore. going back to yellowstone for another day then maybe up to Glacier National Park. Sort of out of the way and then makes a long few days home. But . . . I have never been there.
a few pics.
Twin Falls, ID
Snake River - site of Evil Knieval's failed 1974 attempt to jump in rocket powered motorcycle. A big screw up.
Grand Tetons
And Sturgis. Will not be there much, but riding in area around here for a couple of days then back west. Walked around a while and only saw one Valk.
Oh, I just noticed, a giant has his finger in the right upper corner about to crush a few Harleys.
Reminds me. About 100 miles out at a rest stop some guys were trying to push start a Harley. Said starter "burned out". A few guys were pushing it in the parking lot trying to start it in 1st gear. My buddy an I went over to help, but I said "try it in 3rd". Started right up and they were very thankful.
