I don’t have a bucket list, but if I did, it would include riding my Harley to Sturgis, South Dakota. In an epic three-week trip that covered more than 4,000 miles and nine states, we found our way to the Black Hills, eventually riding with a posse of six, including a couple of motorcycle mamas.

The journey began at my old home in La Quinta, California – and ended at my new home in Carbondale, Colorado. This trip is my tenth epic journey on a Harley.

Somewhere along the way, we rode one of my Top 10 favorites, the Million Dollar Highway (#5).
