My son and I are riding together this year for the first time. He has a 1200 Sportster and I am riding my 1996 Electra Glide. Just think if one million people each stay five days and spend one hundred dollars per day. Redneck, keep an eye out for me I will be the Grey haired guy on the black Harley Davidson. Everybody else GFY.

Doc that was a nice photo essay until the last pix
this ain't an Eastwood movie, I'd have been just fine with the good & the bad
I've got a mirror when I want to see ugly
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

I'm leaving Long Island next Wednesday at 0430...taking my Son along for the first time...This will be my 8th trip I think, never had any trouble of any kind or problems with drunks...Just don't put myself in those situations, but I guess if a fella wanted trouble it would be there for the taking....I spend most of my time AWAY from Sturgis just riding the country also manage to get in an afternoon of shooting p dogs as well.

Couldn't pay me to go, I would end up beating the chit out of some loud mouth drunk. Probably a loud mouth drunk bragging about a dynasty.

I don't want to win a Darwin award so I think I'll keep the Kawasaki home again this year

Yeah. I'd actually be more willing to pay money to see PeeWee perform than 95% of the "entertainers" out there. Throw in some cheap liquor, bad food, and trashy women you don't have to be responsible for, and you have the makings of heaven on earth right there. Say Doc, Can you name the two Americans shot in the back of the head in a theatre?
Abe Lincoln is one of course...
The other is the guy who was sitting in front of Pee-wee Herman in that porn theatre back in 1991... John

How many of the campfire members are headed to the 75th this year?
We live in Spearfish, and I work in Sturgis and things are starting to heat up already. Early estimates look to be over 1 million in attendance. Love Spearfish. Beautiful area.. If coming, I'd suggest you do most of your grocery shopping elsewhere. Many empty shelves at Sam's and Walmart already. Been goin' since '92. Camper will be full of food so no worries there. Besides, we'll be located 3.5 miles west of Custer City where it's not quite so nuts.. Leaving Saturday, noonish. Comin' back on Aug. 6th. It's number 3 on my bucket list, right after visit Mogadishu Good. Keep it that way. That's one less a-hole bikers won't have to deal with.. It`s a freaking Zoo.On my list of places to stay away from.Riding a bike is dangerous enough with out a bunch of drunken azzholes out on their once a year road trip. You ever been there? Only time ya run into that type of crowd is after 8 pm or so.. We get goin' early - like 6:30 am or so before many wake up.. By 4:00 pm we're back at the camper and go nowhere else the rest of the day.. No problems. It's the newbies who've little experience on roads w/o shoulders that usually get into trouble and get hurt.. The daytime crowd is 180 degrees from the nighttime bunch. I with you on that. I live about 20 miles away and avoid it every year. It's great for those that are into it and come out. It sucks for the locals.
Bob Except for the mega-millions "the locals" make off the run every year... They never complain about that.. Rode there in my Dads Side car in 1958.Went there about 20 times the last being 20 years ago.Theres many better places to go.
Its all right to be white!! Stupidity left unattended will run rampant Don't argue with stupid people, They will drag you down to their level and then win by experience
