Calgary to Sturgis and Black Hills South Dakota Motorcycle Trip
Total Duration: 7 days
Total Distance Traveled: 3,813 km
Description: Although this was not a camping trip, I've included it anyway because of the popularity of the destination, Sturgis South Dakota. I made this trip with my son in 2012 and we scheduled it to arrive a week before the main Sturgis rally so we wouldn't have to contend with the crowds and traffic. The main objective of this trip was to tour through the famous Black Hills of South Dakota.
