Took a ride up Spearfish Canyon to Spearfish and then around to Deadwood where we parked and walked around.
Afterwards we took a back road through Nemo to Rapid City where we stopped at Dinosaur Park. Ended up back at the motel.
We are killing time until we ride to a bar and grill where the other guys will watch the Phoenix Suns game.
We took a back road to Hill City for breakfast then spent the better part of the day slooowly driving through Custer State Park and stopping at the Chief Crazy Horse monument. Back to Keystone to check out the brew pubs to see if they had ESPN TV so that Jerry and Rick can watch tomorrow’s Suns game. No luck so far.
Here are the pictures.
Today we left Sheridan to the West back up on 14 to Greybull then back East on 16 to Buffalo and I-90. We road that to Spearfish, SD. We dropped off the interstate to take 2 lane blacktops to Keystone and our motel for the week.
My GPS route somehow got us on 10 miles of gravel road. With our old riding skills on off highway bikes we navigated the road just fine.
The rally is over and everyone hit the road. Steve and I zig zagged our way over several mountain passes to arrive in Sheridan, WY for the night.
I took a few pictures but the camera is in the bike's saddle bag and I’m dressed for bed so I’ll post those tomorrow.
As promised here are pictures from this day.
These were taken on highway 14A and 14 on our way to Sheridan.
We did some exploring around town today. Drove to the Great Falls that the town was named for. Then to the Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center and the Charlie Russell museum. In the middle of the day hit a Perkins restaurant and had to have some pie.
The party’s over tonight so tomorrow Steve and I head to Sheridan, WY via scenic routes.
The rally officially opened today so we checked out the vendors but didn’t see anything I had to have. Quite a few more K1600 riders showed up and pitched their tents.
We got a nice rain shower this afternoon then 5 of us took a Uber ride to a steak house for supper.
Here are some pictures.
