This morning, Doc Robinson filed this quick report from the rapidly filling streets of downtown Sturgis.
Bikers are pouring into Sturgis from all over with the expected doubling of the usual attendance appearing to become a reality. Traffic is crazy busy with Lazelle a nightmare at times, grid lock traffic from end to end. The weather is hot and fine and despite the crowding most people seem to be having a ball.
My day began with the Builders’ Charity Breakfast at the Chip and then attending the FXR Bike Show in the City Park where a hundred or so smock FXRs were proudly displayed. Then it was back to the Chip for the Michael Lichter Exibition, the Naked Truth featuring a display of unpainted bikes which truly did display the workmanship in all its naked glory. All superbly done.
