Motorcycle Trip to Sturgis SD for the 80th annual Sturgis Rally. August 04, 2020 Thru August 13, 2020.


A map of the route we took over to Sturgis, South Dakota for the 80th annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. Coming home we detoured through Yellowstone. Total distance was about 3,500 miles. Cody and his wife on their Harley Street Glide, me on the Harley Heritage. No trailering of bikes to the rally for us (although I saw plenty of that when I got there). As you can see 3,500 miles in 10 days. Not much socializing. Mostly riding. I was tested a few weeks later for antibodies after giving blood, none present. Obviously we took enough precautions. Nobody got sick.

Since Cody had a pillion he had that extra consideration. He also took on the task of route mapping and lead. That is also an additional burden of 'Pilot Workload' he took on that I appreciated.

IMPORTANT!!!! TAKE THESE SIGNS SERIOUSLY!!!!! You are in the Sparsely Populated West, while you may 'have always depended on the kindness of strangers' if they aren't around to give you gas then you are SOL. If you THINK you need gas and you see a gas station GET GAS!:
