My wife and I did out first long trip last December. Did 2800 miles from Washington to Arizona and back.

I didn't know what to expect from spending 24/7 with my wife for 8 days. What I found was it brought us very close . . . literally. It is a wonderful way to spend time together. Made our relationship even stronger even after being married 25 years. Great experience.

Hope yours is good too.

I really think it will be fun and thanks. I hope the weather agrees! We are planning touse the 10th threw the 15th for the entire trip there and back. Should give us plenty of time but it's ok we are in no hurry. The ride is the vacation, what we do there is just a bonus!

Deadwood and the Black Hills got 3 feet of freekin snow yesterday!

I'm sure that will only be a distant memory by the time you guys get there.

Have a great trip!

Keep your eyes open, be safe.

Beware of fatigue-induced loss of attentionlate in the day after many hours of riding, especially on the first couple of days.

Otherwise, have a great trip. Beautiful country up there.

Stay safe & watch out for those crazy cagers (they're everywhere, they're everywhere)!

Dont know if it's there anymore or not, but back in 74 my wife and I toured there and saw the Black Hills Passion Play. (outdoors, somewhere in the hills) an incredible presentation and it is known all over. I don't know that they do it every year.
