Sturgis, South Dakota

...road trippin to Florida

We hadn't been back to Sturgis bike week since 2003, but it was the same feeling four years later. Totally surrounded by bikes of all makes and models, outragous outfits (or lack of), respect for veterans, beautiful scenery to ride in, and the play hard attitude.

Met up with Stewart in Deadwood - he just happened to park right outside of the breakfast joint we were at - what are the odds - we had no plans but only to meet in Deadwood. Hundreds of other places he could've pulled up to. Beautiful short ride - lots of sun and blue skies.

Since we stayed at the Lamphere this time instead of the Buffalo Chip, the Full Throttle was just across the street. We got to meet up with Jess from Minnesota here.

Just one of the strange sights we saw in Sturgis:sturgis__3_.jpg

Leaving Sturgis, road trip to Omaha - of course it rained. 550 miles. And rain. Poor guys didn't have rain gear or a windshield. Nice rainbow, eh?
