Sturgis Experience

For serious motorcyclists, riding is a hobby as well as a way of life, and the annual motorcycle rally in Sturgis, South Dakota, is the ultimate destination. The Sturgis rally, which draws half a million participants a year, is as much about the journey as the destination. Author Jim Casey starts out with a comprehensive history of American bikers from Marlon Brando to the Hell's Angels, then traces the evolution of the rally, its Harley-Davidson connection, and its unique cultural contribution to the lore of the American road. With more than 50 full-color photos, this book will appeal to both armchair adventurers and real-life bikers.
