Weather forecast for Rally is Awesome! 

Forecasts aim for temps to be in the low 70's with some potential for rain - would be good to kick down the dust (and add some trail entertainment  :evil )  Did some scouting today.

Look forward to having you come to the hills!

Sat down last night and mapped out 2 routes I'm thinking about -


Friday - Two Track oriented route.  Should be good for bikes 650 on down.  The track will lead south towards Mystic and then West towards Flag Mtn and beyond.  8-10 riders should be the limit


Saturday - I wanna try something new.  This is a "1.5" oriented track.  Yep, just made it up.  It will start south outta Sugar Shack towards Hill City then East into Victoria Lake.  Suitable for bikes 450 on down.  It will weave thru some easier single tracks, bitchier 2-tracks, and your run of the mill 2 tracks.   Won't be hard-core single tracking all day but there will be places that your bike could go down or gets stuck between tress  ;D.   7-8 riders should be the limit


I've been through most of this country at one time or the other but wont have time to pre-run all of it.

Yes Sugar Shack has gas but your gonna pay for it. Last I saw was over $4 a gallon

convenience fee I guess. I think it was 85 octane last year itd be nice if they changed that out to premium 91+.

Here's a file that I copied from Mike's notes.  He plan's on riding these on Friday and Saturday.  The file is the forest service's pdf map.

I'm helping him post this, I hope!

I can't even express my disappointment.  Mike and son Jordan are unable to accompany me to this rally and the 20th falls on my anniversary.  I thought I had if covered since the wife was coming to Red Lodge for an FJR rally the following weekend but she is now unable to go.  I'm not sure I can even go on in life missing three DDSR Black Hills rallies in a row.  Calling the depression hot line right now, I'm going to miss you guys. :'(
