2007 Sturgis and Canada and back

A sixteen day ride took us thru California into Nevada and Zion Utah, then up thru Wyoming into South Dakota. Deadwood, Spearfish, Mount Rushmore, Sturgis, Custer, Rapid City, Wall, and the Badlands. Then heading up thru Billings and Great Falls, Montana across into Canada to Banff, Lake Louise and on to Kamloops. Then down across the border into Washington over to Portland Oregon, over to the coast to Lincoln City down to Eureka, California and into the Redwoods, Napa Valley and home. All in all 5,340 miles. Weather was great and the ride was a great success. Some pictures to follow. Have too many pictures to post so here is some

Great pictures! Thanks for sharing. Looks like everyone had a great time!

bdas2 · « **Reply #47 on:** August 24, 2007, 11:13:14 AM »

We had very little problems with the bikes. All problems seem to happen at one time, starting with the 06 eagle---a leaking pet cock (was replaced).....08 ultra----cracked cover over the rear header pipe......06 streetglide---front spotlight bolt on right side suddenly disappeared....08 eagle--- rear base gasket leaked......07 eagle--- rear pipe broke from vibration.......07 eagle--extended bar under tour pack broke. It's funny one thing happend to each bike, but all bikes rode all the way home.

Nice pictures,thanks for sharing.
Brought back memories of trips to the Dakotas.
That poor bucking bronco has been at Wall Drug for years. My parents have a shot of me on that horse about 45 years ago.

Looks like a great trip. Glad to hear no major problems. We did an 11 day Sturgis trip from AZ through CO,UT,WY,MT and SD but only logged 4,000 miles. Looks like you got a little bit of everything with your trip.

VAEagle, you musta been an infant, cause I don't think I guessed you to even be 45 years old.
