The rally (especially the riding) in Sturgis, SD was much better than either Dale or I anticipated. We arrived Monday Aug 7th, had 5 good days of riding, and began heading back Aug 12th.
We did a little of the bar scene (Full Throttle Saloon was fantastic!), and explored Main Streets in Sturgis, Deadwood, Lead, and Hill City. But mainly did lot of riding!!!
We both shot stills and videos. I’ll be posting both in the next few post, beginning with this post.
This is Spearfish Canyon Road. One of the roads to ride on my ‘bucket list’. The pavement was top shelf, and I prefer sweepers over switchbacks any day.
Headed to the Big Foot Festival in Marion NC on May 20th for a day of laughter and fun.
Ride Of The Patriots and Rolling Thunder in DC Memorial weekend.
Not much website updating going on here.
Busy photographing homes, and riding the Harley’s.
Weather is looking good!
Hell of a songwriter, performer. Will be missed.
