Join us at Bike Week Motorcycle Tours for the Best Biker Rally in the United States!

​

It's Biker Heaven...Each year, Sturgis' Main Street becomes a sea of motorcycles, leather and denim, not to mention, people.

​

Since 1938, Sturgis has welcomed motorcycle enthusiasts from across the United States and around the world to the annual Motorcycle Rally. Based out of this small community in the northern Black Hills, the Rally officially runs for seven days every August.

Motorcycle traffic to and around South Dakota typically increases as early as two weeks before the official start date of the event and continues for as late as two weeks after the conclusion.

​

What started as a weekend celebration with less than two dozen racers participating in a handful of events including half-mile races, ramp jumps, and board-wall crashes, the Rally has grown significantly. First organized solely by the Jackpine Gypsies Motorcycle Club, the Rally now takes the efforts of most of the population of Sturgis (approximately 6,400) as well as hundreds of outside vendors.

​

Rally-goers can still enjoy several of the original events, although many others have been added over the years such as motocross races, professional and amateur hillclimbs, and drag races. The biggest names in Rock, Classic Rock and Country music entertain all week long at venues located around Sturgis.

​

Visitors can also check out the countless food and souvenir vendors, booths and shops offering everything from motorcycle customizing to tattooing.

​

In addition to the activities in and immediately around Sturgis, many bikers and groups take day-trips throughout the Black Hills and beyond. Within easy riding distance are many attractions including Mount Rushmore National Memorial (62 miles), Crazy Horse Memorial (67 miles), Custer State Park (75 miles), Spearfish Canyon (20 miles), Deadwood (13 miles), Devils Tower National Monument (84 miles) and Badlands National Park (110 miles).
