Morning of Day 2....

After a quiet night at the hotel, I was up early and decided to go for a ride.
It's chilly here in the morning, in the 50's, so its nice and crisp....great weather for a cruise.
I took the ride out of Spearfish, toward Belle Fourche, hit a wild fog patch between Belle & Newell.
Then snuck back down past the Broken Spoke campground and the Buffalo Chip.
Through downtown Sturgis (packed at 915am on opening day), and back towards Spearfish. All told about 90 miles this morning before breakfast, which makes me happy.
Just housed a hearty midwestern breakfast and we are gearing up for a big day ride.
We are headed out to mt. Rushmore, prob a 4 hour ride out and back...
