I-29 and I-90, South Dakota
Today, we hit the road just after 9:00 AM, about on plan. We have an easy driving day, aiming to cross into South Dakota, fuel up in Sioux Falls, and head west on I-90. We weren't on the road very long when we found ourselves seeing an almost steady line of motorcycles heading the other way. The vast majority of them are heading home after a visit to the big bike rally in Sturgis, not far from our "home base". I thought the "festivities" lasted until this coming weekend, so was surprised to see what probably amounted to a thousand bikes leaving. Does it really "count" at Sturgis if you can't make it through the week?
In any event, we've never seen so many beer bellies, grey beards and doo-rags in one day...
