Postcards From The 75th Sturgis Rally (Part 2)

0Sturgis54011Sturgis5405Sturgis540Sturgis stirs very unique feelings. Because of the beautiful riding in the Black Hills and in the Dakota plains. Because nobody has more friends than a biker, and of course the summer event is the perfect pretext to meet your extended biker family.

You ask all the time with who I hang with during the rallies I attend. So, this post is about a few of the industry friends with who I spent a few days of quality time during this landmark 75th Sturgis anniversary. (More pictures on 2nd page) No worry, bikes are coming in the next posts… (photography @ Horst Roesler for Cyril Huze)

    Basking in the memories of a wonderful time. Hooray for the motorcycle world and the businesses that support our machines that fly on the ground! Already planning ’16.

    The “older lady on the patina chopper” is not your average “older lady”. Most young bucks would have a hard time keeping up with her in terms of miles in the saddle or energy or class. Calamity Betsy, one of a kind. If she can do it, you just might not be able to, regardless of age.

    LOL Betsy Huelskamp is not old!!

    Probably one of the coolest and most adventurous people you will meet on a HD 🙂
