Custer Park Ride

[GOZFST]

78 degrees in Rapid City yesterday so my wife and I went for a nice ride, we put about 200 miles on. We rode from Piedmont down through Keystone out 16A through the Pig Tail Bridges, Custer Park, The Wild Life Loop, out through Wind Cave Park and had a nice dinner in Hot Springs. The Iron Mtn Road is very tight and twisty.They had just herded up the Buffalo and had the ones they caught separated in the pens awaiting the auction to thin the herds. They don't go after the big bulls because they are too dangerous.We saw quite a number of them on or near the road, but since the Spyder provides little protection from a charge didn't stop to take pics. The Game Lodge in the park is pretty spectacular. It was a great day for a ride.

Bob, absolutely our favorite SD spot, love the pigtail bridge and tunnels route. Last time we were there, dined at the lodge and then headed out towards Hermosa after dark, got caught in a herd on 36 just east of the 16a "Y" took forever to move through that heard (we were in a F-150).
I love the Wildlife loop early in the morning, we saw so many different animals, took many a shot standing in my open sunroof of my truck, really want to do that on the Spyder soon.
Congrats on your CSP experience and thanks for sharing!
