Its that time of year again. The 84th Sturgis rally starts in just a few days. Here's all the info you need to know.

Crossroads /  20622 Fort Meade Way, Sturgis, SD 57785

 

The First Mfg Co. pop-up shop will be back at the Buffalo Chip Crossroads / Big Engine Bar, starting August 2nd and will close August 12th.

This years pop-up will feature our summer vest series, rain gear (a must have in SD) flannel riding shirts, all new belts, gloves, and a few of our top jackets. Stop by and talk to the crew to get properly fitted for a custom vest. Its always better to find the correct pattern and sit on your bike to make sure its fits the way you want it. 

location Boulder Canyon Rd

We will be inviting customers on video and photo shoots in the black hills for all new FMCo ads that will be running this fall. If you would like to set a time to go film please DM Aaron on our main Instagram account.

Stay tuned for updates on this years FMCo ride, we will have 10 slots available for riders. The ride will included multiple stops for photos and video as well as lunch. Spend the better part of the day riding the black hills and making some new friends.

location Custer State Park 

SIDE NOTES : The Black Hills of SD include some of the best roads for motorcycles in America. The network of canyon roads mixed with state parks in this area will have you amazed.

To ride all that the area has to offer in a week is a tall order. Make sure you are geared up for the day and have plenty of snacks and water. Storms can pop up fast so have your rain gear in your bag. If you see a gas station get gas, especially before you enter Custer Park ( you will only find one pump at Blue Bell Lodge and it might not be the right octane for your bike).

Unless you get up and out of town before 7:30am you will get stuck in traffic. If you are going for a full day ride to Custer, Badlands, or Devils Tower you may get caught in the canyons or grasslands at dusk. Please keep your eyes open for animals before dark and especially after the sun sets.
