Nick's Computer Works Sturgis
2007 (sort of)
Our intent was to visit lower and upper falls. We made it to the lower falls and I am very saddened to say that one of the disks full of pictures of a LOT of buffalo on the roadside did not come out. I will check to see if data experts can salvage the pictures. But we made it to lower falls and started walking down the stairs and paths to the scenic view. Although beautiful, keep in mind that when you go down, you must come back up! Nick II and Charla were not real pleased with that concept. At one point, both sat down with a "not so thrilled" look on their faces. I was wondering how I was going to carry Nick II up the path after his heart attack! But he made it and all is well. We were about to head to the upper falls when the rain broke. Wow, what a rain. This was the only "cold" rain we hit. We scrambled to put our rain gear on and then get back to the pavement. I dropped my bike with the help of a Colorado (license plate) dirt bag that motioned for me to go and then cut me off. Nobody was hurt, but it took Nick II's help to pick the bike up in the rain. It took about two hours to get back to the hotel and we were completely wet and cold. We went and got a big KFC dinner and ate it in the rooms. Then we went to the laundry and finally the spa. Even with the rain, the ride through the park was probably the most enjoyable ride we have ever done. Everyone should do it! Next: Cody, WY. Click here for pictures
