You'll be able to demo the new ULY and maybe the 1125R. Sturgis is fun and the Black Hills are just great riding. |

My last trip to Sturgis was in 2001. I had been attending since 1993. I remember riding my first Buell there in 1995, an S2. I bought one when I got home. That is where the love afair started, now on my 6th. Hope to see some of you guys out there. |

Chopperboy, I see that you are from Cedar Rapids. I grew up in Iowa City and went to the U of I after the Marines. |

I'm from Muscatine my self but live in Sioux Falls now also did my time in the Marines. I was just in rapid and the room was 149 for one night. Summer prices have gone up more then usual and that doesn't bode well for the bike weeks. |

I'll be there! It'll be my first time out West! I'm PUMPED! We'll only be spending a couple days in Sturgis, then the rest of the week and a half riding around the area and over to Yellow Stone. We have somewhere between 2 and 3 thousand miles planned out. |

Me and 3 others are riding from Fresno, taking the long way there including a couple of days in Colorado (about 4000 miles total). Sturgis isn't the reason for the trip but merely the turn around point. A couple of days to relax, watch the show, test ride as many as possible and then head back west. Can't wait. |

Check the fires in hotsprings before you decide your route. I think they are under control now but I am not positive. I think there are over thirty homes lost and some roads were closed. Hope you all have a great week or two! Semper Fi! |
