I went on a little ride...
 
... to the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally.

700,000 Harley Davidsons - 38 BMWs :lol:

If you EVER want to feel like you fell off the moon, ride a BMW in full gear to Sturgis. I mean, more than ever I got the standard "aren't you hot in all that?" blah blah blah. And, even though it was the largest version of amateur week I've ever encountered, it was tremendous. I mean, absolutely amazing.

3,628.8 miles on the bike.

I rolled in last night 749 miles from Ojo Caliente, NM to sleep in my own bed. It was worth it. I left Thursday August 4th and got home August 13[ish]. I say ish, because it was 12:45am :wink:

Uploading pictures and video now.

Chewy and I went in 2008 on my ZX-10R. It was awesome.

Supposed to be great riding around there... despite all the cruisers.

There are some incredible roads. I went with a Jackpine Gypsy. I took back roads that no one seemed to know about. And, I sat in traffic twice. Again, amazing trip.

Pictures loading...

So, you actually rode there and back, rather than putting the bike on a trailer to get it up there like many of those 700k Harleys? :lol:

I went to daytona in 2007 on a jap cruiser. I thought I felt out of place then, I can't imagine doing it on a BMW
