I have gotten my hands on a poster a couple of days ago(thanks Fitzy) about festival coming up on July 11th, in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Now for those of you that don’t know a group of us local guys and gals went down to Rapid City in May to the Fat Tire Festival and I have to say riding in the Black Hills is a mondo good time to say the least. Now with word of the Sturgis BAM the excitement has perked back up once again. BAM by the way stands for Bike, Art, and Music add in a few brews and sounds like a good time to me. The endurance bike Race/Ride/Tour registration starts at 7:30 and the shuttle leaves at 8:20. It sounds like it is going to be the section of the Centenial trail from Piedmont to the Sturgis City Park. The cost of the ride 25 dollars and that is for the Shuttle out the the Piedmont trail head. It sounds like they expect you back into town by around 2:00pm so you still have time to take in some of the other events. They will have bands playing starting at 11:00am with the last band taking the stage at 9:00pm. Actually looking at the poster they have all kinds of activities for the whole family going on all day so this is a good event to bring the family to and squeeze in a ride in the AM. Make sure to check out all of the events going on at www.sturgisbam.com, one final note the best part is this event is free!
