Sturgis 2015 - Unbelievable

[TomInPA]

That Old City Hill Rd was a nice treat. Not very popular either!. I don't think we met a single bike on that road. Only neggie was that darn Railroad track that kept fading in and out. I did finally see the 1880 tourist train, but that was at the South end in Keystone (or was it Rushmore?) and it was just loading up.
Thanks to Tom (TominCA) for that little add-in on my Black Hills loop

There is a historic scenic train that uses that winding track on Old City Hill Rd. I was talking with the conductor, and he told me that the Harley riders habitually crash on the curves where the tracks cross, and the train has to keep an eye out for downed cruisers. When I went through, there was a sizable herd of cattle on the road. Glad you liked it!

Yepper Brotha Tom, I told my 2 other riding pals that you called this road "The Harley Killer". But, us 3 Beemer dudes liked it very much.

About as Isolated as a road that we took, at least in the Black Hills.

Hope you're coming to EOM.... I'll have a special treat for ya!

Okay, but I can't compete with ****s, and now there are ****s in this thread.

There are ****s in every thread here... just a different kind.

The pulled pork was "far out". Just great. The dirt in the yard has yielded a bounty to be converted to sauce that you can't believe. This is totally unfair to those of you watching from the sidelines.

Anything I pay that much for, I like to show off too.
Did a nice job, though.

I think she's saddle sore though...or something.

You'll have to inquire privately to find out any "pulled pork" details from FESTAR, JSNS!

I used to think it would be kinda neat to experience Sturgis just once. But then I started reading this thread when it first began, and started rethinking my desire to EVER go there.

Well sometimes $hit just happens anyways. Last weekend I was out west for the Big Sky Rally. You know the rally that's at the far west end of Montana. Absolutely no freaking way Sturgis should ever enter my mind out there. Well guess what. I put together what I thought was the best route for points, for myself, the night before, and the next morning at 4 we all took off. My wonderfully planned route kicked me in the teeth and took me smack dab in the middle of Sturgis at around noon that last Saturday of the Sturgis rally! All I can say about the Sturgis rally is it is a freaking mess and a bit of a joke. NEVER again will I put together a rally route and not check if it puts me anywheres near that intolerable mass and pathetic excuse for bikers. It must have taken me nearly an hour to travel the length of main street. Glancing down the side streets didn't give any appearance of a retreat.
