It was suggested on another post that we start a specific thread for the Deadwood Rally (D3WR) under Spyder rides and events so here it is. First of all here are official links that might be useful:

It can get a little warm that time of summer, but it’s usually at least 10 degrees cooler in the hills than the surrounding plains. You definitely don’t want to do the Badlands loop if heat is an issue. The higher elevations of the hills like O’Neil pass and Deerfield usually never get too hot.

Added a few maps with the starting and ending point being Deadwood Event Center. Included is an itinerary listing times/mileage between waypoints. Maps show total trip time and distance. The map titled "Southern Hills" is really also in the Central Hills, I just kept the route from last years D3WR brochure. It only goes as far south as the end of Needles Highway. Also added the "Small of America".

Bring rain gear, we’ve been having our summer evening thunderstorms the last few days. Got a good one going on now. So far saying lower 90’s for highs here so probably 80’s in the Hills.

89 for a high Sunday in Deadwood as of now, followed by lower 70’s. Chance of rain Tuesday, but about as nice for riding as you can get.

You're killing me man. Between broken ankle and Spyder in the shop, I am going nuts just hobbling arround.
I bet. Hopefully you get some good riding in yet this summer though.

I feel your pain, dropped a snowplow on my foot yesterday. Who does that in the middle of July anyway?

Stuck my trigger finger in the snowblower a few years back, still have a pin in it. I sometimes forget how much having a good grip depends on it.

That hurts to even look at. Thanks for joining me but I really didn't need any sympathy pain. Hope you heal fast and there is nothing more then bruising.

You outdid me, I’ll be doing Deadwood tomorrow but probably wearing a sandal.
