It was originally proposed as a work project during the Great Depression to run from Maine to North Carolina. But, it was only constructed from Cherokee NC to Shenandoah National Park. The northern terminus of Shenandoah NP just happens to be due west of Washington DC. Politicians from DC could be in the mountains in an hour to cool off during the summer heat. The Blue Ridge Parkway is a not so hidden gem in the US. It's there for everyone to see and use, but relatively few ever do. I love to drive up there every Fall.

I attended Sturgis for a lot of years. My last one was 2021. Don't think I will ever do it again. It's gotten too expensive. The corporations have taken over. Also, too many people bring their families with little kids now. It should remain an adult playground. You want to do a family trip, go somewhere else.

Stayed at Lamphere Ranch last year (2023). Horrible experience. The bathrooms were disgusting. There was poo on the toilet seats constantly and it felt like they never got cleaned. The showers never had hot water. And where I parked my toy hauler.. it was close to the border for Glencoe so it was constant noise all night. Lastly, they screwed up during check-in and charged me and my wife an extra night beyond what we booked. When I caught it and asked them to remove it.. they said they couldn't because there's a no-refund policy. That really pissed me off...

If you are new and want to get the full right-in-Sturgis experience, there are people all over town (at residential homes) who rent out tent space in their yards. Showers and laundry are often included. Prices I saw last year were $25-$30/night per person. There was still vacancy as of the peak of the rally last year. Most of them are within walking distance of the downtown core.
