Ready For Sturgis?

Most people who attend rallies and “get it” understand that the event is only one small part of the experience. Not to knock people who trailer their rides, but they’re missing out on one of the central joys of riding to points known and unknown. Nowhere is that quite as true as with Sturgis. Don’t get me wrong, there are plenty of world-class entertainment options at the Black Hills Rally from racing to custom motorcycles to concerts to just watching the human circus at the huge bars. But Sturgis is all about the ride, both getting to the rally, as well as side trips once there. We got this story from “Hombre” late last year, way too late to run as a “Sturgis Story.” So here in our August issue, about the time most of you who are going will be finalizing plans and checking to-do’s off of lists, we give you Dan Stafford’s big road trip to and from last year’s Sturgis Rally. But for most of it, this story could have happened just about any year. -BB
