There's a lot to see in the Black hills.  We spent 5 days riding the area and I'm glad we had that many days.  Here's some pics from day 3.

On Tuesday we headed North and rode to Sturgis, Deadwood and Spearfish Canyon before riding back via Wyoming.

More pics from Monday:

We stopped for lunch at the edge of Keystone.  While eating a guy came up and talked to us.  He recognized me from my ride reports on ADV.  He was riding a Super Tenere from Wisconsin.



Our next stop.



More riding..

My wife and i rode to Sturgis in 2002. While staying in Mitchell, did you visit the famous "Corn Palace". Its truly a wonder to see.
We also toured a Mustang Shelby museum there. They claim to have 1 Shelby from every year produced.
And I also remember there being a HUGE Cabela's just off the Interstate.
Safe travels.

It was a great trip.  I need to get off my butt and post some more pics.

I drove to Custer where i had reserved a room for 6 nights.  3 others showed up on Sunday with one more planning on joining us on Monday.

We rode the area in and near Custer SP on Monday.

I drove into Badlands NP to check it out.

I loaded up my bike and continued to Mitchell, SD where I spent the night.  The next day I drove west on I-90 stopping at the famous Wall Drug Store.  It was quite the tourist trap.
