Sturgis, SD trip report:
I will post some more pics when my buddy sends them to me, but it was an awesome trip and we had a blast. We left Virginia Beach at 4pm on 8/1 and arrived in Milwaukee at 10:30am on 8/2, boom 1080 or so miles in 19.5 hours. We were so amped up from making to Milwaukee that we just started drinking. We walked from bar to bar, got some brats from the brat house and went to bed about 11pm. Got up the next day and went to the harley musuem and spent way too much time there, it is a great museum. Left Milwaukee on 8/3 and took 59 to 67 to 18 into Madison stopping off at 5 biker bars along the way, then hung out at the college bars in Madison. We left Madison on 8/4 at noon and arrived at the buffalo chip 800 miles later at 2am on 8/5
Some of the bands I saw at the chip: Zac Brown, Candlebox, Saving Abel, Journey, Buckcherry, Boston, Aaron Lewis, Eric Church, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Sugarland, and Skid Row.
