These shots are from El Mirage, Ca. Nov 14th and 15th, the last race of the season and a two day event.
Jay’s first pass was on Saturday, and so far it was his personal best at El Mirage. 170.420mph on a SCTA minimum of 175 mph. Sunday brought a stiff headwind but Jay had extra seat time on the dirt course, with a total of 3 more runs.
Wink Eller was out with his Spirit of Cliff Gullett bike and he made one tuning run of 158 mph. Headwinds, and a duel between a door and his finger, had him sitting out Sunday’s round.
Dave and I head out with my ’41 Indian and set a record of 106.001 on the last run Saturday.
Great fun. Now we all have seven long months before the first meet in May, 2010. Lots of time to plan the next assault, be it on salt or dirt.
The Broken Spoke Campground is proud to announce the booking of .38 Special for the 70th Anniversary Sturgis Rally. After the great response from their standing room only show last year, it was necessary to bring them back again. They will be tearing up the stage on Sunday, August 8, 2010, belting out all of the songs you love to hear. Be sure to check out their website for more tour dates, www.38special.com.
All concerts are free when you camp at the Broken Spoke Campground, and for a limited time, camping is available for only $99 per person, plus tax. Camping rates will increase on January 1, 2010.

Given the reputation that the Broken Spoke Campground is building as the “comfortable campground” with friendly staff, oasis-like pool and tiki bar, cabins, beautiful setting and more, people are already starting to secure their spot for the 70th annual 2010 rally. Until December 31, 2009, rates will continue at $99 + tax, and will increase to $119.38 + tax on January 1, 2010. The 2010 rate is in honor of the rally’s inception in 1938 (the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally was cancelled for two years during WWII). All rates are per person for any length of stay throughout the rally. The campground on 79 North will be open on August 3rd through August 15th, 2010. Private, air-conditioned cabins with mini-refrigerators, microwaves and front patios are available for rent for the 70th rally, along with oversized 30 and 50-amp RV spots. More cabins and bathhouses are in the plans, as well as more RV spots and a café next to the General Store. The Broken Spoke Campground encourages feedback from those who stayed and invites them to send comments and photos from your Sturgis ’09 trip to them at: info@brokenspokecampground.com.
Coming off the heels of an exciting and successful 2009 Sturgis Rally, The Broken Spoke Saloon & Campground is looking forward to the 70th Annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally with competitive rates, (especially for early-bookers) and even more improvements to the impressive 600-acre property.
Close to 3,000 campers called the Broken Spoke Saloon & Campground on 79 North their home for the 69th annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, and as usual the Broken Spoke did not disappoint with free concerts all week – including incredible shows by Foghat and .38 Special – a huge, free pool & hot tubs with live entertainment and the finest of bar maids serving up cold ones all week. The cabins and RV spots were full and the general store was a busy meeting place for hot coffee, supplies and free Wi-Fi. The Limpnickie Lot and the Wall of Death kept people entertained with trike races and daily shows – and the inaugural “Good ‘Ol Days Raceway” was a hit as anyone versed in the old school had expected. To honor those in our armed forces, the Broken Spoke had the Vietnam Veterans Moving Wall on display all week, with a patriotic opening and closing ceremony and a Rolling Thunder Freedom Ride on Wednesday. The week kicked off with another tribute – this time to industry greats Sugar Bear and Michael Lichter. This ride and the annual Cycle Source ride which took place on Tuesday both converged on a working ranch with the most gracious hosts you will find anywhere – and lots of fun and games organized by the family. And of course, while every one else was resting up after 10 days at the rally, owner Jay Allen went out to Bonneville to successfully sent another (8th!) Land Speed Record on his bike. The man never sleeps!
