Posted by admin | Motocycle Rally Sturgis | Posted on August 14th, 2010


The Motorcycle Rally Sturgis is an annual event held in Sturgis, South Dakota. This rally has been taking place each year since 1938, and continues to grow in size each year. In the early days, the main attraction was a spectacular motorcycle race that drew the top riders from around the world.  This annual event was canceled in 1944 and 1945 due to fuel shortages as a result of the war.  Since that time it has continually getting bigger and better every year!  Folow the 71st Anual events at: Rally Schedule of Events

Pee-wee’s visit on August 8th & 9th officially kicked off The Chip’s festivities during the 70th Annual Motorcycle Rally-Sturgis in South Dakota where estimated attendance was over 650,000 motorcycle riders.

Rod “Woody” Woodruff, owner of the Legendary Buffalo Chip, just can’t stop smiling at the prospect. “When I heard Pee-wee loves bikers and wants to join our party, I go so excited- the laughter had tears running down my face!”

“I loved ‘Pee-wee’s Big Adventure’ and that classic scene at the biker bar, and I’m still laughing at Pee-wee trying to ride that bike into the sunset. I just knew instantly that having Pee-wee at a real biker party presented a once in a lifetime experience for many of the hundreds of thousands of riders who will pass through the gates of The Buffalo Chip this summer.”




Keep in mind that each state has their own motorcycle laws to follow. When entering South Dakota to reach Sturgis, you are going to have to obey these laws. They are strictly enforced and you don’t want to spoil your trip by having a serious fine to pay as a result of violation such laws.

While you are encouraged to have a great time while attending the Motorcycle Rally Sturgis, code enforcement is strictly enforced. This is because of the sheer volume of people. There are fines for public intoxication, fighting, indecent exposure, disorderly conduct, careless driving. There are also Zero Tolerance laws regarding drugs. It does not matter the type of drug or the amount, you will be arrested and prosecuted.
