oldkaws4ever and I might be meeting up at Sturgis this year. Anyone else thinking of going? We are thinking of going for the last day and maybe hang out for at least another day afetr everyone is gone. That way we get to see mommy parts and get some good riding in without the huge crowds. :laugh: Start making plans now and I'll post up later to check and see who can make it.

Why go to Sturgis without the crowds. That would be like weekend riding at home. I don't get it. I go to Bike week and Biketoberfest every year so I can ride, mingle, see the bike shows, the day after nothing is happening but traffic going home.

Going for sure but I think that it may be 1 or 2 weeks before the crowd gets there. I might just keep on going to California and back about the time that Sturgis is really happening.

damn right i will be there, only 350 miles from my house!!! I will probably be there most of the week and will be riding my 810 streetfighter. That will be great to meet up with a bunch of real bikes (I mean old kaws). A few of my friends and i will all be riding up on our kz's, and maybe a HD or two. (my 810, my 750, 2 buddy's on 750's, and a 1000). I have talked to timebomb about meeting up and getting a bunch together would be pretty cool. We will most likely stay up around bear butte and stay at the Chip a night or two to see a few concerts and mommy parts:) .

Well it sounds like we might have to come when everyone else is there. I'm not opposed to crowds so anytime is not a problem for me. I'll check with Jim and we'll see whats up.

batteries are a necessity. You go through alot of them when your camera is on taking pictures 24 hours a day for a whole week. You end up getting sweet pics like these though if you are on top of your game
