Default Trailering to Sturgis

Leaving from Las Cruces,NM. in the morning with the Misses. I know Ill get flamed for trailering ,but I only got a few days off of work and I can make it in one day this way. But any how Im going straight up I25 and I will keep a look out for anybody broke down. Also If your retired military or active duty they still have rooms at the Air force base as of 7 this morning for $39.00 per night.

Nothing like hitting the open road with your bike on a trailer!

My neighbor told me yesterday he was trailering to Sturgis. He told me almost like he was embarrassed that he was trailering. He also told me why---a person wants to go with him that doesn't have the ability to ride for long distances and he cares for this person too much to leave them behind. That is a shame that someone or someones have made this man ashamed he is going to trailer for whatever his reasons are. I said cool, enjoy the trip. Glad that you want to take your elderly Mother to Sturgis. I don't care if he trailers or has his bike flown there---whatever it takes. The man just finished a 7500 mile trip to Seattle and other areas along the West coast on his bike. He has nothing to prove to me. Enjoy your trip. Be careful.

No matter how you get there, you are fortunate to be able to go. Made the trip in 07 and will definitely go again some day.
