@@OcotilloTom, sorry to hear about that. My brother-in-law was also in Vietnam at around the same time in the 1960s (USMC helicopter pilot) and he suffered from the effects of Agent Orange too until he died in 2005.
Thank you for your service ...sorry about the illness taking you bikes from you ....been working since day I graduated high school....well before then ...and I said on day I graduated in 1995 I would own a Harley and a corvette before I die ....neither yet ....but because of people like you both my deceased grandfather's and now my deceased father as of Jan 9th this year ....and your services to our country I still believe one day I may have my harley ....again thank you
God bless your Agent Orange Service in Viet Nam my patriotic friend! I am loosing more of my Viet Nam agent orange friends all thes years in my 70's! Bless you for your service to the best country in the World! I am trying to improve what our people need to approve for all of our Veterans!
I drove there from Wichita with my 18 year old son on a pair of old Harleys, arrived on Saturday. It was our first time. Basically, the rally sucked. Never again. What a waste of time. We escaped up into the mountains of Custer State park on Wednesday. Driving the twisty roads with my son was unforgettable.
Baby boomers we been riding bikes our whole lives but there comes a Time when the love of your life is sitting behind you you just can't hold that bike up prolonged periods of time so don't dis us for three wheelers you'll be there someday I love my state of South Dakota!
I have been an American Biker for 60 years. The best thing about being a Biker here is all Bikers love other Bikers and are always ready to help other Bikers.
Owning both the 1600 GTL and 131" Road Glide, (131" = 2147cc), all I can say is that the Black Hills lend themselves more towards the Harley. Not because of performance issues, but from an aesthetic perspective
Thanks for sharing the video. Many of us who ride have never been to the rally, nor have any desire to go. But the Black Hills region has some wonderful twisties just made for 2 or 3 wheels.
I don't know where you live but the twisties of the Black Hills are a phenomenon you have to experience at least once in your lifetime. Granted, there are stretches of road everywhere that a reminiscent of the area, but being there with 500,000 likeminded individuals there with the same purpose is ...... out of this world
@@chicagorandy You should check it out at least once... It's not as crowded as you may think... and the people you meet there are awesome... It's really like nothing else.
I went to Sturgis in 1975 with 3 friends & had a blast. Drove up from Colorado. Lots of bikes, lots of beer, good food, pretty girls and a few doobies. Great time!
Totally agree .... But when I go to Sturgis it's 2 weeks before because nobody is there yet and everybody is happy to see you then I leave just as everybody is starting to arrive .... Best time I've ever had in SD.
Thanks for the look around. I grew up in Daytona Beach (60+ years) riding all my life and went thru Sturgis last year (a week AFTER the event) and was not impressed. At least you can still see the bikes at Sturgis! (What time did you make this?) I hate to think in a couple of decades Sturgis will be like Daytona. But hopefully I won't be around to see that.
You're welcome! That's awesome Daytona beach is a cool place. Well, if you went through Sturgis a week after the rally everything was probably all back to normal, they are pretty quick at packing everything up. This video is from around I believe Tuesday about the 5th day of the rally right in the middle of it. Some of the Custer State Park stuff was filmed a couple days before the start of the rally.
Thank You! Yeah I hadn't been by Mt Rushmore in the dark in a long time I forgot it was lit up at night. My camera was having a hard time but I did what I could thanks again!
When I was young I really wanted to hit Mardi Gras in New Orleans. Never made it. Now I'm mid 60s and I could care less and prefer to avoid crowds/drunks.
@@GeraldMiller-mp8fc so apparently you don't want to go anywhere where everyone in the country Democrat Republican gay straight people from all over the world come together smile have fun talk to each other engage with one another see are beautiful country and go home with a smile on your face I feel sorry for you with love from South Dakota ❤️
So how Long have you experienced our beautiful country from your laptop, get out there get on a bike not on your video game but get out and see our beautiful country it can be life-changing love you from South Dakota
Sir , I live in Idaho and fish hunt and ride a 57 straight leg with a 80” duel disk wide glide , I’m 67 years old and come down here and I’ll show you some nice country ! Been there done that ! 😮😂

@@micpay awesome I used to drive truck so I went through Idaho a lot didn't mean to diss you I'm 67 also I have a 1960 xlch kickstart can't kick it anymore they called it in English Harley cuz you had to kick it on the left side don't know how many times I overextended my knee trying to kick that son of a b****
Probably depends on who you ask and how old they are everyone has a different opinion, but I always have fun. My first rally I was about 12 when they had WWE wrestling there I got to go with a friend and watch that. Everything somewhat changes over time but for the most part it seems the same to me.
please go and show us how empty that woke ass HD booth is. Certainly not the workers fault. It's the board and the CEO. They need to go. If it doesn't change I'm sure a massive amount of us will be getting rid of our beloved HDs. I'm sure another brand would love to have our hard earned cash.

@@gvs5318 I said that the area has sone great roads for 2 or 3 wheel riding. My comment refers to attending the 'biker zoo' that IS the Sturgis Rally.

Women looked a lot better back then. 😅
A bunch of my young biker friends rode to Sturgis in 1975. Sadly, I think all of them have passed away. 😢
Fall is the best Sturgis time.
75% off shirts and 99% less people.
Win.

Well then…don’t go. They won’t you.
@garyroth2764 they are all eating, drinking and being merry, but that will end.
I wouldn’t open my front door to see the best part of this pig dig
It's not the destination, it's the journey 😉
If you're not into bikes it's probably not for you at all. If you are, you will have a blast and want to go back for sure.
i like the Green one~!
Beautiful
Good job…. Great Edit…. Gracias
Thank You!
Great Video! That's my bike as your thumbnail. Had a blast!
That's awesome! Glad you found the video. That is a great looking bike and of course miss Karin too.
Awesome !! So much to see!!
Thank you! Yeah, there definitely is!
Nice video, I wish I was there.🇺🇲🙂#Aztec73

Great viewing from Australia.
Can you please get a video concentrating on the custom bikes please. If time permits of course
Thanks! Time has definitely been an issue this year I am trying to get as much as I can but not sure if I will have any full bike show only videos.
Sorry, looks like goofball heaven to me.
Looks like a hip replacement convention.

Is it hot over there, only there are a lot of people going around with very little on...asking from the UK
Oh yeah, for a few days it was blistering hot about 100 degrees. There was a tiny bit of rain, but it was pretty nice for the whole rally.
I’d rather be on the way to or the way home.

Do they still have the off Main Street bike shows? 2010 there was sponsored tents for the different shows. Some big industry awards, prestige.
I'm not sure but there were a lot of bike shows all over in different places I couldn't make it to all of them.
Sturgis hay days was in the 1990's!
Yeah all the times I went started in the late 80's up to my last time in 99 ..... Was going to go back in 2000 but I sold my bike that summer.
Is that you videoing the video'er on the corner?
first main attraction is Mt. Rushmore. second main attraction is the Worlds Largest Bigfoot....selling beer and t shirts.
You don't quit riding because you get old, you get old because you quit riding!

Went 2013
I thought this was a motorcycle show not an ass show. 😮
Must not have watched the whole video,😂, I enjoyed the sights and sounds of Sturgis!👍
Don't know much about the event, do you?
Its always been a T&A show.
Gas expensive there too

Nope, but it helps, that way the cops know you can't run from them.
After Harley went WOKE I expected a much smaller turnout.
The new woke sturgis
Just sad everybody there should have had a beer in their hand I didn't see any and what happened to the women
There were special event cups you had to buy to have beer on the streets. If people had it in a can cops made them chug it or throw it away.

I remember when place was so packed that you have a hard time walking around town but now, you can really see how bad the economy is

It almost looked boring this year.
It just warms my heart to see the seniors having any good time. It must be quite dangerous with all the elderly riding motorcycles.
The elderly are generally the only ones who can afford Harleys .
