Best of Sturgis Motorcycle Rally 2016 Photo Gallery
The 76th Annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally has officially come to a close, and while we don’t have any official figures on visitor attendance, businesses and other local authorities have reported figures in the 350,000 and 400,000 people total.
It all started a week ago with concerts and parties throughout opening weekend, and followed with the mayor’s ride with the Boz Bros on a beautiful sunny day to Mount Rushmore and then back into town. While every year Sturgis brings something different for its loyal attendees, there is still a relative history and rhythm to “doing” Sturgis every year.
Whether it was your first Sturgis, or your 40th, the iconic rally isn’t for the faint-of-heart, and its considered one of the top items on a true biker’s bucket list. Some may say the rally has been come over-commercialized, and lots some of its charm due to everyone wanting “a piece of the pie,” but others seems to enjoy it just fine. In the end, you’re the judge.
Enjoy these awesome ‘Best of Sturgis’ photos and see ya next year!
