The weather will be hot in the day, comfortable at night and you can expect the potential for thunderstorms rumbling thru - take a good bike cover and rain gear - you never know.



Get your reservations soon, they become limited and go up in cost as time goes by.

I was through there about a week after the rally this year and spent the night just up the road in Spearfish and it was in the 70s during the day and got down to about 50 that night.

This year it was super nice simply perfect, The next minute we were blasted with rain and hail that was killer baseball size! Did I mention wind. A hour later simply beautifull again. Up here our weather can be beautifull and suddenly its take cover time. Small nasty storms can hit and be gone in as little as 10 or 15 minuts. So Be Prepared. You should see great weather everyday, this year was not common. You will love Sturgis! Ride the side streets and travel is not bad, if you stay on the main streets its snail pace and not alot of fun. visit Monkey Rock tell the girls hi! Enjoy! Dan
