STURGIS MOTORCYCLE RALLY

One of the perks of living in the Black Hills is being able to experience this socio-cultural phenomenon. This was the 69th annual rally and we were in the midst of it. The constant roar of the motorcycles could be heard for miles as riders cruised through all the roads in the hills. The town of Sturgis completely transforms to accommodate the 500,000 people that typically descend on this town of 6,000 during these 2 weeks in August. Next year will be the 70th, which means attendance numbers may break all records.
