We left BG on 7/25/09 at 6:00 and traveled west through IL and MO with a nice visit to the Pony Express Museum in St. Joe and 2 Pony Express stations in KS. A tire issue caused us to stop at the H-D in Lincoln NE for a tire change. The ride through NE was beautiful (not all of NE is flat) with stops to see Oregon Trail ruts, Chimney Rock, and Scott's Bluff (don't miss the ride to the top). We headed to Cheyenne and Laramie WY and over the Snowy Range where Jerri and I saw our first moose in the wild. We stopped at Ft. Laramie (only original western fort) and on to the Fur Trader Museum in NE. On our way to Sturgis we stopped at the SD Wild Horse Sanctuary which was worth the stop.
