Hi Mark, you may recall meeting my son and I about three weeks ago at Outdoor Motor Sports. My name is John and his name is Dylan, remember? I'm heading down to the Black Hills on Sunday to attend a vintage bike show in Custer, but am heading over toward Sundance, WY, to stay in Newcastle, WY, for the night. I thought about heading there via Spearfish Canyon, but figured all the rally-goers on their Harleys and cruisers will be wobbling through the canyon at about 25 mph, so...am going to avoid the Hills as much as possible, except when I ride from Newcastle over to Custer.
Anyways, it was nice meeting you, a fellow CB1100 owner, and I would encourage any other owners or forum members to swing by and meet Mark. He didn't even try to sell me a bike!
BTW, I loved that desert camo Ural you had on the floor.

Actually the rally is a very busy time for us. We sold 33 of our 73 bikes for the month during rally week last year. Our service dept is always swamped and we see lots of folks come through the door. Fun but a long two weeks w/o a day off.

Really, that surprises me. I would think the heavy influx of harley related crowd would hurt your business. Interesting. Two weeks without a day off? Ugghhhh

A wise choice to avoid the canyon, it will be packed.

I'd love to have it, but I'm afraid the the CB1100 blew the bike budget this year. When I get a place down in the Black Hills, I am going to seriously consider getting the Ural for gravel road and trail cruising. You'll be the first person I talk to when the time comes!
