We are a small, but growing group of riders who are joining together to share a trip to Sturgis. The "More the Merrier" is our goal and we welcome any who would like to join us and ride together. Sharing camraderie, fun and friendship, maybe even cutting some costs. You just never know what can happen on a trip like this, but one thing is for certain, it will certainly be an adventure to remember.

Any brands of bikes are welcome. Singles, couples, just does not make a difference. The intention is to have a fun, safe ride to the legendary Sturgis Rally.

The Trip
Our trip begins in the Nation's First City, Saint Augustine, Florida and will travel by secondary highways to Sturgis, SD. Obviously not everyone will start from St Augustine, and given the route, you can join up from any location along the way. The planned route will be posted after it is finalized and any wishing to join along the way are welcome. We intend to depart Sturgis area on the final Sunday of the rally for the return trip to NorthEast Florida.

Accommodations
For 2008 we have reserved a large lodge in Hill City, SD. There are 4 bedrooms still currently available in the lodge. It is 15 miles from Rushmore, 30 min to Custer, 60 min to Sturgis and 20 miles to Rapid City. You can see more about the lodge in the photos below.

Meet some of the group.
Aleta Gerard of Palm Coast, FL
Aleta made the trip in 2006 which was chronicalled as "The Mis-Adventures of Aleta". A hysterical cross country trip that could only become an annual event. After 5000 miles in 15 days she earned "Iron Butt" status. Aleta rides a Kawasaki Meanstreak 1500. 		Richard "Tricky Ricky" Mueller of Palm Coast, FL
One of the few photos taken without him flipping the camera a "Bird". Ricky prides himself on his 3 motorcycles and will be riding a "Kawasaki Purple" 1988 Harley Classic. You always have to be on your toes around the Trickster!		 Allan "Tuck-n-Roll" Morgan of Atlanta, GA
Allan got his name last year at Bike Week while showing us that he could perfect the Tuck and Roll in one continuous motion. To which the act got some stares of disbelief and a "What was that?" Allan rides wide glide but he has purchased an Harley Ultra Classic just for this trip.
Dennis "The Brain" Wolk of Duluth, GA
If you want to know something, it is faster to ask Dennis than look it up. We have lots of pictures of Dennis hamming it up. Dennis rides a Harley and says he's made some mean modifications to it.		 Dion Dugan of Brewster, MA
Dion rides a Harley and is friends with Glen. Dion is second from the right in the photo. Most of the time he is pretty quiet or the rest of us are just pretty loud. 		Glen Shenkin of Tyngsboro, MA
Glen rides a Yamaha and gets a lot of grief from Ricky about needing frequent Rice Changes. Glen, Jill, and Dion will be hauling their bikes. The picture above looks like we'll be spending a "Weekend with Bernie".
Phil Harrison of Kennesaw, GA
A friend of Dennis' and former neighbor. We've never met Phil but he rides a BMW and a Harley Sportster. Phil says he is now riding his K1200GT on this trip. I think we should just flip a coin. But Dennis swears he is a nice guy.		 Greg & Debbie Hammons of Little Rock, AR
We've never met Greg and Debbie, but we share mutual friends, Chris & Jerry Carr, from Oklahoma City, OK. These folks are planning to join us on Aug 5th. We're looking forward to meeting them.		 Bedroom with Queen bed available. Current rate is $777.85 for the week for two.
Loft Bed available 1 of 2 queen beds. Current rate is $462.41 for the week for two. Loft Bed available 1 of 2 queen beds. Current rate is $462.41 for the week for two.
