There are every type of motorcyle found, but mostly you find the Harley Motorcycle. I remember hundreds of these guys and gals in their leather chaps and boots, and their bandanas on their heads riding along through Rushville and Gordon on their way to South Dakota, through the Black Hills and the Indian Reservations to that famous site. And the stories that came back, whew, enough to make your toes curl.
Now I look at the blog by the Rapid City Journalist, Bill Harlan, Called the Sturgis Street Blog, and I think, "that looks like fun!" And the pictures of the Motorcycles - like they were straight off of California Choppers or like Bill here says - didn't I see this one on the Discovery Channel?
This time of year was always great to see a celebrity or two also. Kevin Costner made it one year, and I know the list is endless on that point.
It isn't like the old days though, now they actually rent out homes and apartments, some don't drive their "hogs" , they ride in their cars and pull their bikes behind on fancy enclosed trailers -- but then, most of the people I saw on the live street cam were my age and older and believe me, I like my creature comforts now.
I found this to be really awesome blog, with pictures of the Lynryd Skynrd band, and the motorcycles:
