Holy crap! I had no idea someone made the Sturgis trip all the way from Louisiana on that little bike. Thanks for the link. That's a long thread tied into that trip, but I intend to go back and read it all.siobhan wrote:Know ye not of the guy who rode from Louisiana to (almost) Sturgis this summer on a Honda Trail 70?

Mind you, does a Trail count as a scootah? My CT90 is a clutchless shift but no way it feels like an auto-scoot. More like the most fun bike I've ever ridden!

I was hoping to do a little of both. But since I'm going with friends on their trip and schedule, we'll definitely be there for the rally.dakotamouse wrote:Depends on what you are there for. If you want to really ride the hills DON"T go during the rally. The traffic is horrible. If you want to party and have fun go. Be prepared to take some ribbing.

Of course that's mostly HD territory so my Honda would already be an outsider. I asked my wife if she would like to make the trip and ride the Buddy (we're trailering all the bikes up there) and she's very open to that idea ... I think to keep an eye on me more than anything else. A friend, in response to my Sturgis scoot concern, sent me this 2009 Sturgis pic. I guess my concerns were unfounded.![]()
