--Tour--
Annual Tour to the Tower Leaving 9:00am sharp Aug. 5th from the Vets Club Main St. Sturgis with Police Escort. We will head then to Deadwood take Ice Box Canyon. We will head to Sundance for a fuel up and cold drinks at the Dime Horse Shoe, from there we'll head on to Devils Tower where we'll have lunch. Free admittance to the Devils Tower Park.
In 1939, along with Half-Mile Racing, the Club added another
activity by hosting its first "Gypsy Tour" to
Mt. Rushmore, which was still under construction. Along
with Mt. Rushmore, the Jackpine Gypsies Motorcycle Club
is blessed to have many magnificent landmarks and historical
site's to tour including Devil's Tower, the Black Hills,
the Badlands, Needles Highway, Deadwood and much, much more.
From Sturgis you can travel in any compass direction and
find some of the best riding in the world. Would you like
to be a part of history this year and ride with the Gypsies?
This year's Gypsy Tour will leave VFW
Hall at 9:00am on Aug, 5th. Come early and
sign up at the VFW Hall on Main Street, Sturgis.
The VFW Hall also serves as the headquarters during the
Rally. Stop in and say hello to Bob Moore, (Jackpine Gypsy

Most of the racing that the Jackpine Gypsies enjoy
during the year is on their Short Track at the

the bleachers painted with an American Flag to
the smell of hotdog's and hamburgers coming from
the snack bar. Relish this slice of America as
club riders from age five to fifty race toe to
toe in each of our classes. This track allows
you to get up close to the action. come hang out
in the pits, enjoy a cold drink and feel the history.
Don't miss it

serious air racing around their newly built course.
See these riders travel up and around the Jackpine
Mountain, through the trees and back again. Don't
miss what some believe is the most popular racing
style of today. One day only! Aug.
3rd, 10:00am at the Club Grounds.
Come join the force and catch the excitement! |
