[QUOTE="BigOgre, post: 1419799, member: 8712"] While I have zero interest in experiencing the Sturgis rally in all its glory I can fully understand why others may want to and/or even enjoy it. If it appeals to you or just want to be able to say you did it once then go for it. On the other hand if you want to see that part of the country and everything it has to offer then, as been said, showing up in that area during the rally might put a big crimp in your plans. Is getting to that area a must this year or are your plans malleable? If you have other places you can go this year and the rally isn't a must then I'd hold off on that area and strongly suggest attending [URL="https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php/topic/176305-rendezvous-at-red-lodge-2020-june-25th-28th-2020/"]BigJohn's Red Lodge Rendezvous[/URL] in 2020 instead. On your way out from NY you'll pass all the highlights you mentioned including Mt. Rushmore along with many other places, even the town of Sturgis sans rally if you'd like. You'll then also get to meet up with a bunch of great folks from the Forum and travel around Montana, Wyoming, Yellowstone, etc all with the help of some local guidance from like-minded people. As far as I know the last time this gathering was held [I]everyone [/I]raved about it and it should nicely accomplish what you're hoping to do sight-seeing wise if not more. If the stars align I'd definitely like to join in again. [/QUOTE]
