My father is going and I thought I may join him but I have a baby being born any day now and I'm pretty sure the wife would stab me in the face if I left.

It's definitely something I'd like to check out.

Heading back in the morning, I'll post pics when I get home and not exhausted.
This place is definitely a blast. I'm coming for the whole week next year.

Way more Buells and Buell fans up here than I thought there would be.

I totally looked like a biker the first day.

Before I left

Broke my visor off taking a ramp coming out of Sioux City

http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/bb411/wolfo68/20130807_144703_zpsbd8343a6.jpg

Rode like this til the Northwest side of Nebraska

http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/bb411/wolfo68/20130807_150218_zps4639414e.jpg

Developed a small leak off of the front rocker because of the gasket going bad

http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/bb411/wolfo68/20130807_181742_zpsbb6ee9de.jpg

Took a look at the storms ahead of me

http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/bb411/wolfo68/20130807_181821_zps88a1976c.jpg

Made it to Chadron Nebraska and tried to head north to Hot Springs SD, hit a wall of water and wasn't going to get anywhere without a visor so I headed back to Chadron. Met up with a couple of guys at one of the hotels and decided to camp out in this park since all the hotels were full. Spent the night being pestered by drunk teenagers, soaking wet so I kept all my gear on to go to sleep on the ground. Woke up to a 50 degree morning.

Got into Sturgis and immediately saw this beauty, apparently he's on the forum somewhere (or at least someone recognized the bike).

More rain, stopped because I saw a lady go down. Waited for the cops to tell me to leave because I wasn't with the group, she was responsive and got loaded up in to the ambulance, watched them leave before I took off. inexperienced rider mixed with construction and wind blasts off of a semi onto her wind screen.
