Sturgis Rider Favorite No More

After 32 years "just tired of it..."

The saloon popular with many Sturgis Rally bikers is closing. The longtime owner says it has been a success. But after more than three decades, he wants to do something else.

A Change after 32 years. Very understandable.

Located in a scenic place in the Black Hills. High enough for some cooler summer temperatures. And importantly, NOT a chain outfit.

Bike Week Exempted

  • Bars can still stay open until 3 p.m. during Bike Week
  • Daytona Beach leaves cash cow alone

Biker Bar

The Daytona Beach City Commissioners are about to cut the hours that bars in the city can remain open. They would be required to close at 2 a.m., rather than 3 a.m.

Restriction Aimed Mainly at Spring-Breakers

Exempted are "special events." Which include Jeep Beach Week, Speed Weeks, Bike Week, Coke Zero, Biketoberfest and the Turkey Run.

Don't Mess with Cash Cow

Lots of money spent as the consumption of mass quanities of refreshing beverages skyrockets during Daytona Bike Week.

Spring Break for college students was not included in the special events, andin fact the powers-that-be especiallyt singled out the college students to NOT be exempted from the shorter bar hours.
