Sturgis Rally

The Sturgis (Black Hills) Rally officially begins this coming week. One the events on Monday, August 8th, is the Mayor's Ride. Mark Carstensen, the new Mayor of Sturgis, has obtained his motorcycle license and will borrow an H-D Road King in order to participate in the event. He has previous experience riding dirt bikes but this will be his first involvement in road riding.

Mayor Carstensen will also be available to officiate at weddings, which are common at the rally.

For Mayor Carstensen's comments on motorcycling and the rally logon to the Sturgis Rally Daily.

I commend Mayor Carstensen for his support of motorcycling and the Sturgis Rally and wish him, the City of Sturgis, and all the participants well for a safe and successfull rally.
