About 310 miles for the day. Left the campground in the Blackhills and headed up towards Deadwood, SD, where we stopped briefly before continuing up through Spearfish Canyon. What a beautiful ride. Ended up in Spearfish, hit I90 and continued to Devils Tower, WY. Nice. Not too crowded, and was able to shoot a few pictures. Will post later. The internet connection is rather crappy.
Headed down I90 to Sheridan, WY, where we are camping overnight.
Didnt have internet connection, so was unable to upload any pics.
What a day it was. Didnt make any time as we just rode about 70 mls taking in the beauty of the hills. Bisons, prong horns, Needles hwy, Crazy Horse, all just a sight to ride through and see. We still have perfect weather with 70s during the day and 40s at night. Perfect for camping. Beemers are still running very good after 2100 mls into the trip.
I will try to upload pics tonite if we can find a campground w/ electricity. We’ll probably end up a little east of Cody, WY today…..
Edit: Pics from yesterday..
Relaxed day today with around 125 mls. We got up very early to take some photo shots out in the Badlands. Beautiful light with the sun just coming up. We stayed at the NP campground in Interior. Headed out around 10:00AM after eating breakfast. Continued on 240 through Badlands, with countless stops for pictures. Headed further out through the wilderness through a 15 mile dirtroad that eventually took us to Wall, SD. We just had to ride into town to see what Wal Drugs was all about. Quite the tourist attraction.
We headed back out bound for Mt. Rushmore. We got there, and it wasn't too crowded at all. Got some shots taken of The Four Big Ones too. Rode back to Keystone and found us a nice, quite campground.
We'll be riding deeper into the Blackhills tomorrow. (Custer SP, Crazy Horse etc)
We ended up in Badlands NP. Camping at Interior. Very nice. Moonlike landscape. Cant upload pics yet as we dont have any Internet access. Spent some time in Sioux Falls visiting a butterfly house. Beautiful place. Also stopped at "the falls".
400 MLS total including a messy detour around I29 and also around Omaha,NE. Staying at a state park just south of Sioux Falls. Beautiful place. Tomorrow we'll spend a little time in Sioux Falls before we head further west. Badlands and The Blackhills….
