22 - FBA and the Sturgis Rally in South Dakota! ....Sorta...

Flat BA has been driving me nuts...
With talk about the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally.

For months now he's been zooming around.
"Vroom, vroom...screeeech!"
(Repeat ad nauseam.)

Finally, I gave him a map, pointed west...
And, sent him out to meet Kathy over in South Dakota.

Okay...so, I tricked him.
Kathy lives in Spearfish, S.D.
Not Sturgis.
So, Flat BA really didn't get all the way to the rally.
But, he DID have a good time, all the same.

First, FBA got his groove on and grabbed some breakfast with the bikers.

And, Flat BA checked out some really cool choppers.

(Click on the pic to see a large version.)
Wanna see the bike without FBA?

There were lots and lots of bikes.
Kathy said she just sat under a tree eating an ice cream cone. As long as she heard his "Vroom, vroom!" she knew FBA wasn't too far off.
*wink*

Finally he tuckered himself out.
There was still one more thing to see.
This is the other part of the "Welcome to Spearfish" sign.
And, how her town got its name.

Kathy thought she might be able to take FBA to Mount Rushmore. But, the roads are far too busy when with bikes this time of year.

Hopefully someday Flat BA will get there.
Ever since seeing Cary Grant in "North By Northwest" he's wanted to climb the faces.

Someday, this could be you!
Patience, FBA.

Thanks for showing him a great time, Kathy!
