Time to saddle up and get all these plans in motion as Sturgis is just around the corner. So here is, all the info you will needTuesday BDB Group Ride/Luncheon.

If you could copy the items below and post what your plans are for the event. If you are uncomfortable listing your phone number then no problem.

Other Plans

Tuesdays Group Ride As we have posted before we will all meet up in Deadwood and plan to leave this area all together at 1100. As we have the past couple years we will all ride out of town and regroup in that large lot just as you turn south to Hill City. If you are not familiar with this rest assured that there will be plenty of members here to show you the way.
We will then make our way South to the KOA campground where our luncheon is set up. This is the same as last year. If you haven't counted yourself in for this luncheon then please do so now so that Dakotabos can get a head count to the fine folks that do this for us. Dakotabos cell # is 575 442-1121 and will be staying at The Spur Camp Ground.

This year we will be meeting at the Saloon #10
Parking is a bitch, there is just no two ways about it. The streets don't open up till 10 so everyone is just on their own to find parking. Not too much of a problem at this time of day anyway just you may not be in site of your bike.

After we arrive at the Luncheon facility (it takes us about an hour to get here) we will get all the bikes lined up like we did last year (trying to get all the Big Dogs together) and take group photo's and get the BDB Banner up and everyone can sign it. Then we eat.
Last year we got everyone involved by asking several questions like "How far did you ride", "who came the farthest", "who has the oldest/newest bike" and others.
After lunch our ride is over so this leaves you the choice to visit Mt Rushmore or Crazy Horse or any of the other sites in the area.

Our 2009 thread has a lot of great information and more maps for your planning purposes:

Arrival/Departure: leaving Oklahoma City AUG 4th early arriving in Sturgis late that night and leaving Sturgis the 11th if the hangover will allow it.

Contact/Location your staying: (405)370-0001 Broken Spoke Self contained RV lot. Look for the Black Kenworth.

Other Plans: Ride Ride Ride. Going to see Foghat and maybe George Thorogood over at the Chip if schedules don't conflict. I've heard Uncle Ted is playing too so I won't miss that. We'll try to go downtown early one morning I'm sure.

Damn Dakotabos after 24 hours and 163 lookers we have 1 "me" for sure and a maybe out of AZ. The run this year may just consist of me running by your campground and having your bartender make me a drink. Well it's just Saturday maybe everyones out riding and I'm the only one working with nothing better to do than be on here.

Hope everyone has a great time. I never go to Sturgis the week of the rally anymore. Just not worth it fighting all the crowds for me. Going 4th - 7th and after most roll in on Sat, I am MORE than ready to hit the rode outta town!

I'll be there but won't have my dog. I'm riding the distance. Are we still welcome without it? We will be leaving STL area on the 5th at 3:30 pm if they would like to ride with us.

Dakotabos whens the latest people can opt in so you can get a head count. I could have more than 3 in my party just don't know yet. And I don't know how this works but I'm sure your gonna need some money? Or is this a cash bar type situation at the end of the run?

Tuesday at 10am if you dont show up at the #10 Saloon I will figure out that you were too drunk to come out for a ride that early:roll:

I like giving a head count on Sunday to Ralph and Sandy but they understand if I am a little off. At 10am Tuesday I give them a good head count and they are ready for us when we arrive.:cheers:

Been holding off hoping I could go but I'm going to miss Sturgis (and the ride, Damn) this year (made it '08 &'10). My son is getting married right at that time.

Ya ALL have a great time and drink one for me!:cheers:

The way it's looking right now. We won't be there until Tuesday afternoon at the earliest, or Wed. in the afternoon. My buddy will be on a trip to Cali. for work so we are waiting until he gets back to leave. So we either leave Monday sometime, or early Tuesday. So we won't make the ride on Tuesday, but if anyone is up for riding with a couple dogs let me know.. Drop me a pm with your number and I will send you mine.. Cary

One of the old ones.
Count in two more K-9's. I will be there, and altho I don't speak for him, I'm confident Blacktopper plans to be there too--as usual, we'll ride from Pittsburg KS, arrive Sunday afternoon, and stay with relatives who live in Sturgis---
Looking forward to meeting some of the guys form the forum.
