Anybody going to Sturgis this summer? It is a maybe for me, but wondering...

I won't be on the Buell (will stay in Korea), but I am interested in meeting some of my fellow Buellers if I make it.

Just wonderin'

I'll be there this year. Staying at Spearfish with the in-laws. Was great riding last year especially the road to Rochford.

I'm in Denver, Sturgis is just a day trip for my (albeit a 14 hour ride). I like to go on the last Saturday when the t-shirts get cheap. An hour or 2 is enough for me. Seeing throngs of fat guys sweating in leather loses it's novelty quickly.

My favorite part of the ride is Highway 85 from Newcastle WY to Lead/Deadwood. Took the Buell last year. I love being able to pass a pack of 50 HD's in about 30 seconds. Gotta love the 65-100mph time on that thing. : )

Hmmmm, that is a possibility of about 5 so far. Maybe some others will speak up also. As I said, it is still a maybe for me. Our club here in Korea started having reunion runs back in the States each year, and this year we picked Sturgis...last year Ruidoso.

Anyway, Chainsaw said he likes the last Saturday when T-Shirts are cheap...cheapskate Maybe we can meet in Spearfish where it won't be quite as crowded?

Sturgis is still 6 months away, but I will start a list of maybes...see how this thing shapes up, if you guys are interested. I don't want to interfere with anybody's plans, but I think it would be great if we could visit and share a little time together...put some faces on the nicknames and logos we see on the web.

Whatcha think? Cyko Bob

I wouldn't wait too long, the hotels there book up fast. I stayed at the holiday inn in spearfish last year and had first shot at the same room again this year. Chainsaw where do you hang out in sturgis ????? I spent a day downtown on main st and there were nothing but beautiful women down there, and a lot with barely nothing on.

I can hook you guys up with a property rental company if you want to rent a house. They have everything from tent space to mansions.

One of our club members has a brother in Sturgis where we might stay...campout style. However, we are actually leaning toward renting a house and splitting the cost. There could be about 14 of us, but it is still in the air as to how many will actually go...including myself.

You are right about not waiting to make reservations...and our club is trying to nail it down because of the time factor.

Dbird...I will keep that in mind. I think our Road Captain has already nailed something down, but if we hit a bump in the road I will get back with you.

Okay...how about one of you who have been there...have family there or something, tell us what date and place works for you, and the rest of us that can be there will be there.

As for a date, place, and time, it needs to be specific...

Just my suggestion...Whatcha think?

Laconia New Hampshire comes to mind when someone mentions and "East coast Sturgis". There is a big bike week during the AMA road races at Louden.
