Title: 2016 Memorial Day Weekend Trans South Dakota Adventure Trail Sign up

2016 Trans South Dakota Adventure Trail Sign up Thread

Plan: Meet up at Ryani or Greatbuffalo's place (in Mitchell) on evening of the 26 (May) or in the earlier morning of the 27th. Grill out or whatever you want to do that night, have a frew bews. Morning of the 27th, pack up and possibly have a departure breakfast at a TBD joint. Depart after that, hopefully no later than 9:30am.

Due to the potential of such a large group, it was discussed that we may need to split up into smaller groups of 4-5 as to cut down on dust for the poor souls in the back 

First night I think we should be able to make it to Gross NE or somewhere along the Missouri River (S. Scalp Creek Recreation Area) by the end of the first night. We are taking the southern route, so I think we should be able to make it to Midland SD the second night. I'm not sure for accommodations there, but there is the Stropple Inn, and also the city park. Last night's stay is really up in the air.

No, you didn't miss anything. The rendezvous location is in Mitchell on the 26th, so we can get a good early start on Friday the 27th.

I'll be joining in on Friday, heading out from Sioux Falls mid morning and hopefully meeting up with the group around the Pleasant View Cemetery.

I also don't feel like risking the weather. I am into adventure riding but don't feel like risking adventure grinding. Hope it all works well for you guys. Have a great safe trip.

Looking at tonight's sunset I think the weather could make some of the best photo ops of the summer. Hope I don't slow everybody down taking pictures. :)
